[quote=Anonymous]First, it's great that he's feeding your children healthy meals, OP. Second, I do agree that he seems to have some sort of anxiety or OCD over losing control. The fact that he *chooses* to exert that control over food has nothing to do with health. It's part of his intrinsic personality, and that's problematic. If it wasn't food, it would be something else. I don't know whether he would listen to you if you explained that this isn't about food or health, it's about his need for control. My husband is that way too (not about food), and he is in total denial that he has anxiety, because to him anxiety means feeling fear. He does not understand that in men, anxiety can translate to anger and yelling (which he does). You could also suggest therapy, but if he sincerely doesn't see his behavior as a problem, it will probably not be helpful. [/quote]
