Do women love their kids more than their husbands ?

Anonymous
I love my son definitely more than my husband. My love for him is so strong, it trumps every other thing/thought. I couldn't even go back to work bc I couldn't bare to break our special bond. He is 3 now and I put him in part time preschool and I think about him the whole time we are apart. Even when I'm doing something enjoyable (jungshin class, massage, talking w friend) he's always. In the back of my mind.

I'd die for him but I would not die for my husband. There's literally nothing my son could do to make me not love him but I could think of many things my husband could do to make me love him less.

Maybe things change as the little ones grow up, I don't know. As it stands now, I arrange my whole life around my son and there s nothing I wouldn't do for him just to make him smile even. I even worry I couldn't love another child as much as dear son. I must kiss him a zillion times a day and I spoil him in every way I can. Right now I'm on the floor next to our bed watching him sleep. I lay w himi every night to put him to bed since birth.

This may sound crazy but in reality it's just love. I know there will be a. Time I have to step down and another woman will take my place. Until then and while he'll have me, I treasure my time with him.

The short of it, I could never love my husband more than my son. It's just impossible . Primal is a good way to des drive it. He'll probably be the last things. Think about as a pass away. God, I love that boy.

He even made me nurse him every 2.5 hours for 2 months and I did it happily bc I am so in love. I could only go w so little sleep for my little son. I woke with every whimper and never let him cry once , even if I was severely sleep deprived. And insanely enough, he has never annoyed or irritated me once in his whole life. Even if he's demanding or has tantrums or hits. I'm just love him so and he always make me smile and laugh. Under any circumstance! Such a blessing!

Sorry no partner can compete w that.

Definitely my kids. I'm glad they have always been the priority considering my DH was a liar and a cheater, and now an X!! Blood is thicker than water.

What would you do when your son grow up and leave ?
It seems like you only care and love your son. If you don't care about your husband in these years and make your marriage your priority then it would die down . So many marriages break because women make their whole lives about their kids.

I definitely agree
I have noticed something interesting over the years. The father seems to look at the wife like she looks at the children. She is his first focus in most cases. His actions and aspirations seem to be focused on taking care of her. He wants to protect her, hold her, provide for her and make her happy... the mother looks at her children the same. It's not that the father's focus isn't on the kids, it just seems to be the woman he focuses on first and the mother on the child.

Wow you actually sound obsessed. I'm not sure this is healthy as it puts too much pressure on your child, especially as he grows older. I think you should rethink this, PP.

No, I love my children and husband equally, which is to say that I love them all very, very much.

If I didn't have DH, my kids would not exist. My kids are a piece of each of us. My love for my son is fierce and strong but I can't say it's "more" than my love for DH. Its jist different. My love for DH is strong as well and when I married him, it was my plan to be partners for life. He is my best friend and the one I intend to spend the rest of my life with. After my kids are grown, married and off doing their own thing, it will be just DH and I.

And like PP, I fell even harder for DH once we had our first son together. He's an amazing father, provider and husband. I love my boys with every ounce of my being and would do anything for any of them.

We are together for 12 years already. And i trust him more than anyone in this earth. Most men and women don't cheat. If you think your spouse could cheat then leave him. Without trust there is no marriage.

Me and my husband are a team - we don't function as well without each other. My dh makes me a better person. I WOULD die for him. I would also die for my children. I love all of my family as much.

My son loves me more than my husband I think. A child's love is so pure. I think even the most loving, best husband is easier to fall away than a loving child.

There is divorce for marriage and other women can turn your mans head whether u believe it or not. Marriage was a choice. But your children are for life and it is not a choice. Nature or God made it so. Seems children have the edge.

Not to say husbands aren't loving, make us. Better person, etc... They are and should be... But it's not unconditional is it? You love them according to what rhey have done. If for some reason they were to fall, and let's say be a jerk regularly or take interest in another woman... Your love would diminish... Whereas with a child, if they fall away u just keep loving them just the same.

For example what if your husband didn't make u a better person? What if he wasn't fabulous anymore? It's all conditional based on what he is doing. With the child it's just the child's very being/existence.

Husband then kids. One day the kids will be out of the house and probably just check in once a day or a week by phone. They'll get caught up in their careers, spouses, etc , so DH is the person who will still be by my side.
