No. However, I recognize that I will be growing old with my spouse. My children, on the other hand, will someday move away and have their own lives. I think this is something that all parents should keep in the back of their head and live accordingly. We mustn't forget that we will be with our spouse when the children leave. Work on that relationship and don't neglect it. Pouring all of our energy into the kids is a big mistake.

I love my spouse because I chose him and know that we are united in a partnership that we both work towards. My children need me though and are a product of that love I have with my spouse. Spouse and children should be considered a single unit. I love my family. You wouldn't go around saying "my first born is replacable, but the baby is what I live for."


Brother Otter
"love" and "more" do not belong in the same sentence. The very idea of comparing one's devotion to children to the kind of relationship we have with a life mate is silly.

Your spouse should come first. Your spouse is the only person that is going to be there for life (or should be). Your children are going to grow up, leave home, and start their own families. They are not always going to be there day in and day out. Your spouse is. Your spouse should be number 1.

Typically, women will disagree. They are wrong. If you build your life 100% around your children, what are you going to do when they are gone?

Notice I did not use the word "love". The love you feel for your children is different than the love you feel for your spouse. I just said your spouse should come first.

Its a totally different type of love for my children than it is for my spouse. And its not that I love my kids more, but they are absolutely the most important thing, and my very first priority in life. The moment you have children, they become the most important thing.

I heard it described once as your children are #1 and your spouse is #1A. I think that's right.

I would say I love my husband and my son about the same, though obviously in very different ways. I wouldn't have given birth to his child if I didn't love him unconditionally, and I love my son unconditionally as well.


BikerChick
NO - I cannot believe you would even think that way in order to even ASK such a question. When I choose to really LOVE someone, it is unconditional and the same no matter WHO I feel it for.

The love for each are totally different type of feelings, but the love I feel for my child is deeper than that of my husband's.

It is a different love.
However my child is more important than my husband. He takes the backseat, likewise my husband feels the same way. I was numero uno to him but since the baby (who is now 2) is now greater than me, he is more improtant than either of us..
We know and accept this as normal

I love my dog more then I love my wife

My children on the other hand nothing replaces that


John K
That's a tough question. If my wife and 2 kids were getting ready to fall off a cliff and I could only save 2, it would be my kids. They are absolutely adorable and are the light of my life. My wife is, well my wife. I do love her and we have shared a part of life, but my children are a part of me. Two different types of love and not equal.

Its a different type of love.

That is a terrible question, actually. Any one who know what REAL love is would never think to ask this.
