Best gift for kids - parents' strong marriage

[jedamum]

chloecube:

DD ever ask me if i love her or DH more

told her tat i love DH more, he is my husband.
because w/o him, there wont be her
but i assure her that she is the next in the list ..hahah

lol.
OT, but when ds1 asked me if i love him or ds2 more, i told him that given that the amount of love i have for them is equal, and ds1 is 4 yrs older than ds2, adds up the cumulative amount of love, technically the amount is more for ds1.

thank you for sharing. it’s a great article. i also place my husband the first place. good marriage will only do the kids good. have seen so many cases of failed marriages and the kids suffer. so it’s really impt for you to maintain and treasure your relationship with your husband

Good reminder. My parents have a terrible relationship. It was very painful growing up and I am still bugged by quite a few unhappy incidents from those dark teenage years.


Fast forward to a few failed relationships, marriage to the rock of my life, and a beautiful daughter (one more coming!), I’ve learnt to handle my emotions better. It’s easier said than done but everyday, I have to remind myself to cherish my husband and what we have built together. I’m not wife of the year material but I do my best, because I don’t want my daughters to ever have to experience what I had been through.

Love one another. Three simple words but so much hard work in reality.

yes certainly strong marriage provides a good environment for your kids to grow and mature. love from both sides would definitely be the best for the kid

Wow amazing. It’s easy to neglect this when a lot of attention is placed on the kids right? Does having kids make you and your spouse quarrel more frequently?
