I was raised in a family that my parents loved there three girls but they loved each first. I always tell people my parents stayed married because they were committed to each other first and that is why I was not from a broken home!!! I understand what they are saying and applaud them!! This is from someone who was lived by there mom and dad but grew up with parents that loved each other very much. When my father died my mother died soon after at a young age! Us girls say she died if a broken heart!!!!

If they are going by biblical beliefs then they are right. God first, marriage second, and children third. It doesn't sound prudent, but the formula works. As parents we need wisdom from God, and strong moral beliefs which comes first before the children. Due to a strong relationship with God as parents you realize that you are one in the eyes of God therefore as husband, and wife you take on a united front with raising your children.... by not allowing your children to destroy your marriage. Children are then considered third, but by having parents that love God, and one another without any division you are actually putting your children first by giving them a loving, and stable environment in which to be raised. If not in that order children will, and do divide their parents without any reguard to the confusion they have created within their own home between their parents.

They are doing great. It should be God first then your husband then your kids as one day they will grow up and leave you.

Poor baby. If they in top of their game they can be great parents and partners, how can u enjoy you relationship if u not good parent and how can u enjoy parenting if not good partners. All together consist of a happy family. And all is as important keeping a balance.

I'm having difficulty understanding the logic here.The surrogate must be feeling confused right about now,as am I.Is it because you did not actually give birth or what?I am so serious. SMGDH!!

Their marriage will not last. I give them one year tops before the big divorce.

Sounds pretty selfish and backwards. Your children should come first.

They don't want a broken family..so they have a good marriage foundation first and then they raise their baby together with the right family value's. Kids pay attention to their parents, so if they see the parents behavior towards one another, then they will follow. She is absolutely doing it right.

They are believer from everything I've seen. I think everyone's getting a little radical here. Yes God comes first. The point is when you're a believer that's just a given. So when you start talking marriage first kids next then extended family and career, you label it 1,2,3. Reason being that you're talking about your earthly relationships. And yes, Duke comes first as far as his needs and being totally dependent on his parents. I'm sure if the house is on fire the first thi g they are gonna do is go for the baby. What they are saying is that they are in it as a team not two individuals and they make sure that they nurture their relationship. People who's marriage fall apart after the kids come along remind me of little kids that wanted a kitten so bad that nothing els mattered and they got it. Then they got a puppy and forgot about the kitty. It's ridiculous. In my opinion if you want to make the world a kinder gentler place everyone should put their marriage first above all other earthly relationships. Then you wouldn't ha e so damn many broke. Homes and resentful children etc etc. these two beautiful people are doing it right.

That's a good idea cause children learn from there parents. So a heathy relationship is good
