Well, just a vent.

1. My son is 3. He gets out oulf school at 3. He then had a snack. He refused dinner at 7. H wanted to send him to bed hungry. He is now not speaking to me because I "underminded" him by giving the kid some fruit. I am not sorry for my actions.

2. Our plumbing is not working well. I really hope the ground is just too wet from the snow and rain.

3. I only started Christmas shopping this morning. I am stressed. I am also too pissed to buy my H anything. (He is normally a nice guy).

Grr, I'm sorry your H is being an ass.
I see both sides of the argument, but the silent treatment is far from constructive here.

Sorry. I would not want my three year old to go to bed hungry, either.

L does this often. Her only allowed snacks at bedtime are cheese and oatmeal squares cereal.

I'd do no food, but she will and has woken up at 2am because she was hungry.

I do see his point, really. All my boys do is eat. The 3 year old is the least pickiest. My older son ate dinner and was still ready for a snack before bed. I just think this isn't worth the fight. He ate an apple out of the fruit bowl. Not cookies.
