As i cant have breakfast & lunch with my husband.I like have atleast dinner with him.I will wait for him if he is also too late.He always scolds me to have food if he is late.But i dont feel to eat leaving him.& its also our culture to eat after husband.I am indian,here they still follow old culture.i am not following all those things but i dont like to eat leaving him & he feels lonely.He also will not eat any thing outside if he is late. Do u wait for your partner? Do your country also contains this type of culture?

My kids and I usually go ahead and eat if my husband calls and says he will be late sometimes he wont get home until 8 at night and that would be to long for the kids to wait to eat supper. I will heat up his food when he gets home and sit out in the kitchen with him while he eats.

Its bad to make kids to wait for.I know its good to eat whenever we feel hungry.I always think i should eat when i feel hungry but i end up with thinking i can wait for another half an hr or one hr.thanks for posting.

It depends on how fast he can get home. If he is not there by a certain time, I will start without him. I have to feed our children. So I may not be waiting too long. In my country, you do what you want. I know in a household, people have different strange standards that they go by. When I was young, Me and my cousins and sister would have to wait until my grandmother gets home from work to eat. The food would be already done, but we had to wait. I hated this. That is why, I never make my kids or myself wait on someone to get home. Although, I enjoy their father eating dinner with us. I will just have to start regardless.
