they are on the same level, after kids.

Neither!!

The first and foremost should be the newly married couple. The parents and in-laws should realize that with changing family dynamics there will be adjustments all around.

Sounds like you are mixing it all up. Love for your partner is ofcourse different from the love for your parents. Your wife's parents are as important to her as your parents are to you.
You and your wife are a family of your own though, and family comes in first, even though relatives do need attention.

The husband. The family gave her away on her wedding day to symbolize she is becoming part of another family now and building her own her priority is you as your priority is her.

I think husband or wife should come first before their parents.

Husband first. Many parents don't like their children's mate, but if they do your a blessed person.

Lydia

The husband. Once you are married, you are a new family.

Not sure what you're asking... Husband comes first.

Parents, none come first... they are equal.

It's like asking, in a marriage who should come first? Husband or wife? What do you think is the right answer???

Parents are parents. His or hers. Both should be accorded due respect and affection.

Husband, but try to understand and give a little. Parents feel left out sometimes and they are important too.

spouse first....unless you have kids then it's kids, spouse, and everything else

Husband of course. You are not married to parents and they will die someday and you will be left with your spouse.

if you mean who should be More important to the wife, her husband or her parents then I say husband HANDS DOWN!
If you mean who's parents should come first the husbands or the wife's, I think it depends on the situation. And they should NEVER come between the husband and wife.

The husband, that's why she got married and left her parents' house.

1. Husband and Wife
2. Kids
3. Inlaws - both sides

your favorites lol actually alternate or include them all when you make bbq plans..

Neither should have to come "first". Both sets of parents should be on equal footing.

Neither comes first. When you marry, the parents don't really count anymore. You have to see to your newly created family. Parents can cause a lot of trouble for a newly married couple. Move as far away as you can, be respectful to them, but don't let them decide where you spend your holidays, what you name your kids, where you live, or how to run your new life.

Husband. Assuming that he is a good husband.

Whichever is more likely to leave you the most money when they die.

Wife should accompany first.

Pearl

First comes the spouse, if there are kids they come next and the parents come last in the list.

Husband.
After marriage the wife, the husband and the eventually the children are a unit. Not his or her parents.
when someone says a family they mean two spouses and children, they dont mean a spouse and his or her parents.

The husband.

It is my belief that your husband comes first, but you still have a duty to your immediate family. I also believe that a husband should not make you choose between him and your family, nor a wife make her husband pick between her and his family.

Yes, take care of your spouse... and he should take care of you, too. A good husband will help you take care of your family as well and not make you feel bad about being there for your parents.

If he's making you choose get out of the marriage.

both come first.
