[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of us actually are able to balance our spouse and our children. If my DD had a major conflict with my DH (her stepdad), she wouldn't be sent to live in an apartment. We would work it out. If it was a safety issue (if he was molesting her or beating her), I would absolutely throw him out. If it was her being a jerk teenager, she would just have to suck it up, the same way she would if DH was her bio dad. [/quote] +1. "Putting one first" implies they are separate and easily distinguishable. If you only pay attention to your marriage you will have an unhealthy child. If you only pay attention to your child you will have an unhappy marriage. What you really need to do is prioritize both and that begins with not marrying someone who would attempt to damage the relationship with the child but instead someone for whom the mental health of the child is at least almost as important as it is for you.
