I have a horrible thing I want to confess and I'm not sure what to do about this. Here it is: I basically cannot stand to watch my 6 year old daughter eating.

She chews very loudly with her mouth open, eats with her fingers and shoves food into her mouth like she's a starving prisoner -- even when I know she is not starved.

Whenever I try to correct her, my husband defends her strongly and yells at me saying that I need to leave her alone, and I will be giving her a complex.

She is also a carb addict and whines for treats and food all the time. I can't seem to control it and am so worried about it. I don't want her to feel ashamed about her eating but at the same time I can feel my face forming into a scowl whenever she is eating.

I feel like I need some counseling.
