parents, kids or spouse?

July 9, 2008 1:45am CST
After marriage, you automatically fall in love with your spouse, after that you have kids and then you fall in love with your kids too. Before marriage you loved your parents only and now you have three streams to distribute your love to. Which one of these do you care for and love the most? No doubt, you love them all but some degree up and down for each of them. Is it possible to love them all equally or not?

I love them all very much but I would say the intensity varied. In my case the greatest love goes to my husband because we are one flesh, we have been united in a holy union and for that we both left our parents to be united as one

The kind of love that we have for everyone differs. But I think I love them all equally. I could not say that I love someone more than the other. Ofcourse the importance given to each of them is different in different situations. Since my kids are small now I give them more importance in my life. But if God forbid my mother had to fall ill tomorrow I would give her more attention than my children. So I could say that I care and love all of them equally. My spouse is no more so I have not included him in this discussion.

I think the greatest love is for your children. I know mine is. If I ever had to choose between my partner or my kids, it will be the kids. Same goes for my parents. I know they raised me and I do love them, but they won't go before my kids. Have a nice day
