[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you all - except the PP who thinks kids shouldn't be allowed to eat... Whatever.

To address some points - we live in a warm climate. We can eat outdoors.

This is new behavior by my husband. I like the idea of asking why so I'll approach it that way.

I have regular check ups with the pediatrician, and she is completely fine with my daughter's diet and how she eats.

She wasn't "shoving her face with junk" before dinner. It was four hours before dinner, and she was eating a snack right after school ended, which is normal. My husband happened to be working from home that day - not usual - so he doesn't necessarily know her routine. His reaction was bizarre.

I'll be addressing all of this some time this weekend.

Thank you to PPs with all of this helpful advice. Others criticizing my daughter and her weight - scroll on. She's 11 and you're taking shots at a 11 year old girl. Even anonymously, that's just out of bounds.[/quote]

Good, OP, it sounds like you have a plan to get to the bottom of this. Since it's new behavior, I'd guess either impending puberty for your daughter, something that happened to him around 11 (maybe also puberty), some manifestation of COVID anxiety or something else that's going on for him in his personal life that's leading him to want to control others. Good luck.[/quote]
