[quote=Anonymous]I think you're being incredibly unfair to your husband. One parent should NEVER be put in the position where they are the "bad cop". You need to have a discussion with your DH and get on the same page with rules. When your kid eats a cookie before dinner, does she eat all of her usual amount of nutritional dinner without delays or complaints? If not, then your husband is right, no cookie. And you need to accept that by allowing the cookie, you are being both a bad mother and a bad wife. In the case of the extra story, if it's really not a big deal to get an extra story (because you have time etc) then don't say she can just have one or two, increase the number until it's your limit and then communicate the actual limit. After the limit, that's it. At this stage, you're on track to have a spoiled rotten kid AND a broken marriage. Neither of which I'm guessing you're going for.[/quote]
