Would your kids starve.........

if left with DH??

I am convinced mine would!

I was just cleaning out the fridge when I noticed the meals I had labeled for Emilia were still there.

I worked Saturday. ALL DAY. I didn't get home until after 7pm. Miles spent the day at my sisters.

I made Emilia pre cooked food. All he had to do was put it in the microwave or just set it out for her. I did this because he claims their is never anything to eat when I work.

Did he see the food in there YES.....did he feed it to her.....NO. Instead she grazed on pickles and some cheeze its. ALL DAY. Yeah you had to move the Tupperware labeled "EAT YOUR FOOD TINA"..to get to the pickles.

When I got home she was HORRIBLE. I thought she was just tired but she kept telling me " MORE MORE MORE MORE"  aka More Food.

vent over.. at least my fridge is clean!

  • Yikes! Luckily, I could leave for a week and he'd have it covered (I wouldnt even have to leave him anything!).
  • He wouldn't starve, but he wouldn't eat what I would like him too. DH tends to get lazy and order out if I am not home.  So instead of DS eating something like oranges, green beans and some chicken, he will eat pizza.

  • No, but she would have Doritos for breakfast and McDonalds for lunch and dinner.
  • Not even close.  DH does a great job feeding the kids.  He also does the grocery shopping, though, so a lot of times, he ends up telling me things we have that I didn't even realize.  'Why didn't you give E x, y, or z?'  Didn't know we had it!
  • He might not feed them what I would and they would probably eat too much junk and have too many suckers, but they'd be ok.
  • No, but they'd eat out for every meal probably.
  • I don't think so. Only because DD can open the cupboards and fridge to get her own food when she is hungry. Who knows what she would eat, because DH never finds "meals", but she would have something.

  • The girls probably wouldn't starve.  They'd love it because he'd feed them chicken nuggets, hot dogs and PB&J with maybe a trip to McD's thrown in.  Their blood pressure might not be able to take it, but they'd eat.  My girls let you know if they're hungry and they have to eat.  That said, he might starve and would be extremely cranky.  He says he can't eat with them because it's "too hard" and then he usually forgets to eat or gets in such a mood b/c his blood sugar is low that he doesn't want to eat.  Either way, I get home from a wedding/shoot some days at 9 or 10pm and he'll be going off on me and I'll have to ask him if he ate and then feed him (yes, me after my long day).  Men.
  • DH probably cooks more than I do.  DD would be eating a lot of macaroni and cheese for lunch, but she's be fed.
