[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious what others general opinion is, regarding prioritizing.  Wife/husband over the kids, or vice versa. How do you view it? Just a thought provoking conversation early this morning. :D   Both relationships obviously need to be nurtured, however was curious if one is viewed as more important, or needing more attention,than the other[/quote]

I don't think relationships should be zero-sums game.  There should be flexibility in your relationships and I think it odd if you answered, I'm a wife first and mom second or a mom first and wife second.  You could say the same about a husband/Dad.  I am purely talking about a couple who got married and then have children. Not a second marriage because then I think most non-parent would say they are wife/husband first.

I see this question the same as I would if you asked do you see yourself as a mom to your first kid or your second kid?  You are mom to both!  Sometimes I am more "wife" oriented and sometimes I am more "mom" oriented but, I am both mom and wife.
