Yes, once you have kids it’s not about YOU anymore...

If you can’t handle that reality, you and your husband will part company, at the very latest after the kids are out of the house.. if you dwell on what was, instead of embracing what is, you are lost.

[gaijin]

Wow, what a bubbling cauldron of needless drama.

The tree did not make the orange for you.

Mum, 31, pens heartbreaking note on what marriage is like after having kids

I failed to find the "heartbreak" in her Facebook post.

It was a perfectly honest account of how lives change when a married couple has children. Yes, date nights are fewer and farther between. yes, we no longer sleep in late on the weekends.

The only drama in this story was in the title.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Well that was depressing.

[sparklite2]

thinking of all the things we used to do.

---

Things, like a walk in the park;
things, like a kiss in the dark;
things like a sailboat ride;
what about the night we cried?

Just thinking about the things we used to do.

didn’t click link to read more but sounds like typical child/selfocused mind in an adult body. “All about me”. Society has too many of these.

Grow up Shelia!

Many people have come to believe that they should never be uncomfortable, should never have to focus on someone other than themselves, and are not willing to put time or effort into a marriage, or raising kids, or working hard.

As soon as things get tough, or they have to put in effort, they become victims, they cry foul and wish for everyone to join their pity party.

Coping skills and resilience have become extinct.

This is why I hate Facebook.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Maybe mommy should stop blogging all day....

[strider44]

Drama. Welcome to the human race. Stop complaining.

[Slyfox]

All the work you put in as a parent is worth it when your son on his wedding day puts his arms around you and thanks you for being a good example to him all his life.

Someday she’ll be complaining about how quiet and how lonely the house is.

“Some people may be able to keep their s**t together but some people, like us, we find it hard to balance. The children have become the number one priority and at some point we need to learn to put our relationship towards the top of that priority list,” she continued.

No, the children are the reason you were given the opportunity to pro-create and continue the human race. It is your most important responsibility. It is hard to do.

This woman wants sex, booze and rock and roll and wants to stay frozen in time at age 21-24 when her nipples never went soft and 18 hours of sex play in a 24 hour period didn't kill you.

Time and kids change that, grow up, you whining bitch.

For Facebook Mom:

Here are two things you can do to improve the situation:

1. Shut up.
2. Get down on your knees and thank God.

Having a bunch of kids only hurt spontaneous sex

You just have to make time several times a week

Menopause is much more of a deal killer

HRT is your friend ladies if you want sex ...if it no longer matters then why bother

My marriage has had serious ups and downs but intimacy and frequency of it has been the glue to get us through that

I advise every couple to keep that candle burning

It’s the closest two people can get

Hell I knew that even as a young man

It’s like a drug...healing and life affirming

If this mom is letting kids kill that she needs to re-examine her priorities

[Arlis]

Every man should know that once a wife has kids, he is low man on the list.....last......

A woman’s children are flesh-of-her-flesh, bone-of-her-bone....they were part of her body for 9 months, and no marriage relationship can be anywhere that close.

[mrsmith]

" If someone told me years ago that my relationship would one day change, I would have laughed and said no way,” she began... "

All, everyone. of us old folks would have told her just exactly that.
