To seethe

DS1 is 12, 13 next week. In his second year of high school, we're in Scotland. I'm working from home in a fairly high pressure managerial role.
DH is working out and about in a professional job. We work as a team, he takes the younger DCs to school etc.
DS1 has medical issues, ADHD, anxiety. Things are pretty tough for him and latest issue is possibly the start of an eating disorder. Gets lots of support from CAMHS.
I'm currently sorting out dinner in between other work tasks.
DS1 wanders in , asks what's for dinner, doesn't like my response and tells me he'll just not bother.
AIBU to ignore his strop, point out that the world does not revolve around him and that food will be there when he wants it?

YANBU. Try not to seethe - if you can, shrug, tell him it's his choice and he knows where the bread and cheese/baked beans/whatever are if he wants to get himself something else.
