A Mom Sparks Online Fury With a Question About Prioritizing Kids Over Spouses, and We’re Lost Too

In the natural progression of events in time a woman becomes wife first before she becomes a mother. Same with the man, he is first a husband before he become a father. The wedding vow is between the man and the woman. Nowhere in the vow that child/children are part of marriage. Children are part of the family. That is why “a man leaves his father and mother and cleave to his wife.”and get into their own marriage.
