Who Comes First, the Kids or the
Marriage?
Is your family out of order? Does your spouse come first, or do your kids take the
number one spot? Do you even know which should be the top priority in your
family? We’re here to tell you – whether your family is traditional or
blended – your marriage has to take priority over your kids.
We know that’s not an easy sell for most people. But children need to know that their parents love not only them,
but each other, madly love each other. Their sense of security grows as they see parents loving each other. To put your
marriage on hold for 18 years – or even one year – while you raise children is not only detrimental to your marriage, but
it is also devastating to your children. When the parental team breaks down, children become the biggest losers. They
lose their family, which is where they build their sense of security. When children don’t feel secure, their whole world
seems to unravel. No amount of baseball, dance, piano lessons or toys can make up for that kind of loss. Research shows
that marriage takes a hit when you have kids. According to an analysis of 90 studies involving 31,000 married people, the
drop in marital satisfaction after the first baby’s birth is a staggering 42% larger among the current generation of parents
than their predecessors. Satisfaction dips even lower – though only slightly – with each successive child. Studies also suggest
that one-third to one-half of new-parent couples experience as much marital distress as couples already in therapy
for marital difficulties. So, if you can’t seem to prioritize your marriage or spend money on dates for yourselves . . . do
it for your kids! And if you’re not sure how to start, we’re going to coach you with practical ways to be couple-focused
rather than child-focused!
