[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. It would never occur to me to ask DH to get stuff to fill the Easter eggs. Just like he'd never ask me to cut the grass, detail the car or call someone for a home repair. My territory is planning fun activities for the kids, throwing their parties, stuffing their stockings, hiding the elf, getting them all gifts for all holidays/birthdays. I'm good at it and I enjoy it. If I asked DH to do it, he might try, but I wouldn't trust him not to fail miserably just like your DH did. It would not shock me if he brought Paydays and almond chocolate rather than high end foil wrapped eggs. He would just have no clue.

This seems silly to get mad about. Just embrace your stuff and have him do what he's good at.[/quote]

There was an update.  He does the shopping.  He didn’t accidentally get the wrong thing.  He knew what she wanted and didn’t get it in order to prove a point.  [/quote]

He knew she wanted Easter candy.

The debate around that is whether or not a Hershey bar qualifies as Easter candy, and who has the Authority to make this determination for the rest of us. [/quote]

He knew she wanted candy [b]her kids would like[/b]. Whether or not your kids like Hershey's with almonds is a moot point. My kid likes Mounds bars. I think they're disgusting but I'd still get them for her. [/quote]

Where did OP specify what candy the kids said they prefer, other than 'easter candy'?[/quote]

A parent should know what kind of candy their kids like. My husband did the stockings this year because he knows what we all want. It's not that high of a bar. [/quote]

This is a really dumb test. My husband is an excellent very involved father and I'm sure he has no idea what type of candy each of our kids likes. I think all of you are just trying really hard to be unhappy.[/quote]

Actually I'm very happily married. To a man who knows what type of candy our kids likes.[/quote]
