[quote=Anonymous]Prompted by my second grader informing me yesterday that the most important criterion for selecting a husband is picking someone who is nice to kids. (Then: “You did a good job, Mom.”) But it got me thinking, I have a lot of opinions about how to pick a spouse. Like, if you want kids make sure your spouse wants kids. Like, if you want kids and your career is time-consuming and important to you, consider looking for a spouse who will take on more of the child and home duties. Like, if you want to be a SAHP make sure your spouse’s personality and earning potential support that. Obviously none of this is appropriate for my 8yo, but at what age and how do you talk to your kids about thinking about their futures this way?[/quote]
