[QUOTE="chimingin, post: 663713, member: 19412"] Idea: set up a shelf with snacks that are okay for him to get on his own, without having to ask (have you considered that husband says no when he asks? And so the child "steals" food?) Personally, my life improved when I gave my kids their own shelf in the pantry and one in the fridge!! I can sleep in a little longer without being asked to get a box off the top shelf every morning! Give the kid a bag of crackers and some apples that are safe for him to eat when he feels hungry. I know you want to keep the peace, but I encourage you to go to bat for the kid on this one. It's important that someone be in his corner (imagine what it feels like knowing stepdad will leave mom if I eat without permission.). :( [/QUOTE]
