Say it louder for the people in the back

This. 100% this.

Our children are not the most important people in our home. DH and I are. It's one of the many reasons we have a successful marriage. Too often people get caught up in children. It's easy to do. And too often their relationships are neglected due to that which leads to divorce. I would never have interrupted my parents or thought I could sleep in their bed. My children don't do that either. I didn't think I was more important than my folks growing up. It had always been clear to me that as my parents and as the leaders of our family they were the most important people in our home. We didn't feel neglected or less than because of it. It's just how it was and how DH and I raise our family too.

Our children need us to model healthy relationships so they can have healthy relationships. Children thinking they are the most important people in a home is why we have kids wanting participation trophies today and getting their panties in a twist over songs and TV shows that are decades old and insisting they are banned. It gives them a sense of entitlement that the world does not need.

I am the most important person in the world and my kids know that. Kidding sort of lol.

I make sure their needs and most of their wants are met. But they also know if momma ain't happy, no one is going to be happy. Happy wife, Happy life.

I understand what you're saying but cosleeping doesn't even fit into what you're trying to convey.

Yes red, we're all aware you're a narcissistic ball buster. Not something I would be proud of but you do you.
