Quote From: km7574You have one thing WAY wrong. The order is 1) God, 2) CHILDREN 3) Spouse, 4) Others. If I had to choose to save my husband or my son, my son would win everytime. You missed the point. I am not talking about a life or death situation. Naturally, I would choose saving my child over my husband, and he would do the same. I am talking about spouses making time for each other that is sacred time. Whether it is after the children are asleep or while they are at school. Whatever your schedule permits. I am talking about honoring each other and presenting a united front when it comes to discipline and not letting the child/ren play one parent against the other to get what they want because one parent is more lenient or whathaveyou. I am talking about teaching our children by example how to respect and love and nurture. And I am speaking from experience. I have spent the first five years of my marriage putting everything, including our children, before my husband. And he checked out mentally and emotionally. This past year has been a rather rocky one that almost spelled the end of our marriage. Maybe I'm not explaining myself as best that I should. And I hope that someone can make sense of my middle of the night rambling.
