So this morning DH was giving DC breakfast while I was upstairs. For context DDs are 1 and 5. I could hear elder DD crying and refusing to eat her toast because her DS was sat in her chair. DH was just getting cross and telling her it didn’t matter. I came downstairs, put younger DD in her own chair, older DD got in her chair, no tears, everyone eating breakfast, order restored.
However DH got angry because I undermined him. I can see his point and on the whole we try and support the others decision in front of the children. That said I agreed with older DD and don’t think we should give younger DD whatever she want just because she’s younger.
Was I wrong? Should I have let the tears continue just to support DH in a decision I didn’t agree with?

Did I undermine DH, was I right to?
