[quote=Anonymous]OP again.  So I don't think it's a reluctance to cook/clean up because I do all the cooking and cleaning (we botg work full time).  I don't think it's the timing of the meal, since we all get home by 6 and dinner is at 6:30.  He will sit on the couch with his ipad while my daughter (6) and I eat dinner.  He typically eats his chips (which he buys, not me) while I am putting her to bed around 8:30.  I think it sends her the message that dinner isn't really dinner because if she doesnt like what's served, she'll eat only a bite then ask for a snack before bed (my husband will then give her a snack although I think it's a poor habit, but we have fought this to death).

PP whi suggested an eating disorder may be onto something, but part of me thinks he just wants to do/eat what he feels like and his #1 pasttime is videos.  I wish I had more insight into his desires/psychology around this but we only have counseling once a week and that tine is devoted to putting out fires between us[/quote]
