Spouse or Kids? Which comes first?

Hi schweppes


Hey thanks for responding

Yup, like what u said, this is the itinial stage. Kids will grow eventually and hopefully can rekindle the flame :lol: Our couple time now is chatting after baby has slept, though sometimes hubby said he wanna koon liao. Ha! But it's good to talk abt everything & anything.

We had a few hrs of couple time last week after I had my checkup coz maid was at neighbour's hse & son in childcare. Though time is short we really cherish it and I really enjoyed the steak lunch :love:

One of my colleague told me this : wife/hubby is freehold and children are leasehold.

Thus both are impt and should not negelect spouse.

Enjoy reading all your post in this thread - very enlightening and cheery exchange


Hubby and me know who should come first -DS always come first being the only child - hubby knows it and he encouraged it because he knows I will flip if anything happen to DS. Maybe because we have DS very late in the marriage.

The first 6 years was tough when the boy was young but we manage and it get better- we have less or no couple time then.

DH will soon take centre stage because at the end of the day DH will be the one that hold your hand. It started to \"dawn\" on me as boy goes into sec school.

This thread is really interesting.

Children are leasehold, but that doesn’t mean that the spouse can be forgotten just because he/she is freehold.

My hubby and I do not have much couple time since the kids arrived - son is 10, daughter is 5+. Our time revolves around them. I am a SAHM, and it’s stressful facing them all the time. But the strange thing is when I am away from them, I miss the kids very much.

Spouse comes first. But spouse will usually give up his priority for the kids.

Wah, leasehold and freehold . . . . fantastic


Do spouses go from prime dist to non prime or vice versa ? Do leasehold ranged from 20yrs onwards, and then after diminishing return ? They go thru boom and bust too ? :rotflmao:

Dun be surprised that some can even go BOOMZ!

And when they go boomz, make sure you check that your credit cardz are still inside your walletz.
