You should put your spouse before your kids and skids? Do you think your spouse should put you before your skids and kids?

Thank you, same to you too. To each their own...what works for some, not for all. I enjoy and respect your posts, perspective, and strength I sense in your answers. You've been at this a while making it work. I've use some of your advice with my family I've seen on other threads and it's worked like a charm. Disagreed with some of the rest, still respect where you're coming from, you've earned your stripes.

well we can agree to disagree. good luck with your marriage and step kids.

Thank you for saying that. I appreciate that very much.:)

I agree with this.

Quoting LemonZest:

I think putting the spouse first does put the kids first (in most cases).  If you have a stable, loving relationsip with your spouse and seek to support them and stand united with them as a cooperative partner, your kids will grow up in a stable, loving home.  Too often, people put their kids first and end up neglecting their marriage.

As long as there arent safety concerns then I feel it is the only way that a family can raise children to have healthy relationships as adults. We are a blended fam his, mine, and ours.
