Today, I asked my husband to watch our kids while I cooked food for him. Apparently I asked in the wrong tone, because now he's pouting and won't eat. FML

Today, as soon as I got home, my husband said he was hungry and that I needed to cook. I flipped my shit and yelled at him for a good half hour. Later, he pulled out his phone and showed me videos of me doing the exact thing to him, asking him to do things the second he walked in the door. FML
Today, due to my wife saying I never cook and that we always order pizza, I spent a good hour preparing dinner. While serving it to my kids, they started complaining. My wife told them to shut up. When she took a bite, she looked up at me, smiled, and said, "Do you, you know, want to just order pizza?" FML
Today, my husband threw an epic tantrum because I asked him to put away the leftovers from dinner. Yeah, because I guess me going to the grocery store, then preparing and serving the food AFTER working a 10 hour day wasn’t enough. Thanks babe. FML
Today, I was making dinner for my family while my wife was at work. She walked in the door with McDonald's, even though she knew I was cooking. Then our kids saw and started screaming that they wanted McDonald's too and that it was unfair. I've told her not to pull this shit and she won't listen. FML
Today, my husband said early in the day that he wanted to cook dinner. When he decided it was time to cook, he apparently put some meat on the grill. I didn't know he'd started dinner. He does this every time he "cooks" and gets mad every time I haven't prepared the rest of the meal. FML
Today, I realized just how spoiled and immature my boyfriend is when I asked him several times what he’d like for dinner. Getting no answer, I made steak, potatoes and salad. He then sulked and refused to eat it, since he wanted spaghetti and meatballs instead. FML
Today, my husband and I were arguing, but I dropped it so we could calm down before discussing the matter again. Later on, he made us lasagna. The moment I swallowed the first mouthful, he smirked, then started snickering uncontrollably. What the fuck did he do to my food? FML
Today, my husband decided that if he's not hungry, then I'm not allowed to make myself any food. FML
Today, I told my husband that as I wasn't hungry, he had to cook for himself. He rang my Spanish stepmother as a joke to complain that I’m not wifey material. She showed up, whacked me with her Chancla, and browbeat me into cooking. He feels hella guilty, but he’s still a dead man once she leaves. FML
Today, we were planning to go out to dinner at our favorite restaurant. My kids and I were all dressed and ready to go when my husband waltzes in with fast food. He said he found some coupons for a free family meal. The kids and I got upset and he said, "I didn't have to get this for you guys." FML

Leave him be - he won't starve, he's a grown man, despite not acting like one.

Instead, he is acting like one of the kids.

He's a husband and father, you shouldn't have to ask him to watch the kids; that's literally the definition of being a parent. It should not be treated as a special request to spend time with your own children.

I'm hoping you made a mistake and meant "oldest child" instead of "husband".

YDI...Don't you know you have to ASK Dad NICELY to babysit?! I mean, you wouldn't call up the neighbor girl and SAY "Keep an eye on my children while I..." No. You would call and POLITELY ASK "Would you mind watching my children for x length of time? I would like to y. If you can, I will compensate you with z. I would very much appreciate it." So WHY, IN MOTHER NATURE'S GREEN EARTH, would you ASSUME that Dad would be ANY DIFFERENT. Maybe next time you should ask a lot nicer. And I GUARANTEE your chances will increase if you offer (AND FOLLOW THROUGH ON GIVING) a blowie. ☺

They're his kids, too. It's not at all the same as a neighbour, who has no obligation toward the kids. A man should not have to be asked (let alone bribed) to take care of his own children, he should just be doing it.

A real father doesn't "babysit" his own kids it's a no brainer to take care of the kids while your spouse is cooking or doing other domestic duties
