[quote=Anonymous]I think that until it happens, and he's under that pressure, you just don't know, but I'd say, as someone who often regrets marrying my husband because of his parenting, emotional intelligence is a biggie. You can come from a crummy family and still have emotional intelligence. You can come from a "good" two-parent family and not have an ounce of it. I even had insight, my DH had two kids already when I met him! The problem is they were in mid-elementary school. My husband was a good father to toddlers, and then young kids, even tweens, but when they got to be around 16 and becoming independent, having their own thoughts, their own ideas, and if they didn't line up with Dad's, it was a different fathering story. And especially towards his sons. It continues to be a rough road.[/quote]
