He's an oddball. Grin I wouldn't care though as it'd mean more chocolate for me! Grin

I'd find it odd, but people can be as odd as they like when it comes to what they put in their own mouths. It's nothing to do with anyone else.

Your DH is being ridiculous-I share bags of chocolate/sweets with the woman sat at the side of me at work never mind DC & DH!!

glad its not just me thinking that. he will quite happily eat a takeaway made by a stranger but not get a sweet out of the bag his dcs have been putting hands in.

I think it's a bit odd.

Does he know how many paws will have manhandled his food before it's brought to him in a restaurant.

Some people are just very germphobic.

Definitely weird. Presumably he's been known to touch you or you wouldn't have DC :o so I'm not sure what good he's going to do by not sharing biscuits...

Yabvu! Never share chocolate Wink

He is quite strange though, my OH's brother is a bit like this but only if he isn't sure who's touched it... Your DP clearly has never seen a takeaway's kitchen Grin

that's very odd, especially in the close relationships or parent and child - my kids and I share biscuits we have been biting FGS! and drink from the same cup - does he have a thing about obsessive handwashing? - will he hold the DC hands or yours? shake hands with strangers? what about door handles in public places etc? or buffets - how does he cope there ?

do you think he has OCD?
