[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^the point is that, like most women, her husband, who is supposed to be the #1 priority, slips to like, third or fourth priority. Your marriage should be the utmost priority. Not a child-centered existence. What is going on here is a completely child-centered existence and an emphasis on material things. I feel bad for DH. He has an opportunity to fulfill his dream in what seems like pretty good and stable circumstances but OP’s desire for new cars and more square footage trumps everything. [/quote]

Who on god's green earth said her husband is supposed to be her first priority? Most people get married to become partners in bringing children into the world. Some people make a different contract but it is explicit in the beginning (or should be). No one said she should start ignoring her husband and treating him like crap just because she has kids, but to imply that she should forgo kids for her husband's dreams is obscene.

That said, yes, OP, you take it too far. Ask your DH to come up with a strategy to make your lives work with his new plan without forging a 2nd kid. It can be done. [/quote]

It is really sad if most people marry for a sperm donor. [/quote]
