If you had to choose between your parents and your wife or husband?

Well this would be a really difficoult choice. Like you said it is a different kind of love, you owe a lot to your parents for taking care , raising and giving you all you needed to grow up well. But on the other hand when you are in love you somehow do not want to lose tha tpersone ever if you could, so I think many cannot make a choice, and it is extremely difficoult for me to think of what would be the best, but if I were forced to make a choice maybe I would go for my wife (maybe) but then I would feel extremely guilty for not choosing my mom. So at the end I think I will say I cannot give up any of the two, is like asking if you had to choose to lose the right or the left leg. what about you?

It depends if it was my parents that were the ones that would tear the family apart if i stayed with her, then i'd stay with her, and the other way around too. Noone that you love should make you make a choice like that.

hello ice, It depends upon the situation. If my parents were the reason or directing me stay away from my husband or forcing me to leave my husband without good reason...i think,i won't leave my husband. And if it is my husband who's asking me to stay away from my parents without good reason too...i will never listen to him. My parents give me this life(by the help and will of God)..and my husband or no one aside from God could give me a parents...not even my husband can give me a parent. So...if in any circumstances and with fair good reason that i need to choose between my parents and my husband,,,i would surely choose my parents without any second thought.

As what you have said it is a different love. I love my parents and my husband equally..but If i have to choose I would chose my husband because our child bind us together, he's our own blood and flesh.. And I don't see anything wrong with him when it comes to my parents, he love and respect them and so with my parents they love my husband too.

In my case I will tell them both to stay clam. I will talked to both of them and find what the problem is. Personally I will like to stay with both, but if i had to chose. Then I will leave both of them.

ohh..gush!!maybe thats one of the hardest decision...i do not have wife yet...so i go for parents!! thats it!

I had once asked my husband as to whom he loves more…his parents or me and he had said that as a wife, my place is in his heart and as parents, their place is on his shoulder. Our parents are our responsibilities while our spouse is our life partner. The problem arises when one party does not acknowledge the importance of the other. Sometimes, the spouse feels that we are giving too much importance to our parents and sometimes our parents feel that we are neglecting them. Each relation is integral to life and each should be understood and respected for its own value. I’ve never stopped my husband from helping his parents financially, from visiting them regularly or taking care of them in times of medical needs. Similarly, he’s never interfered in my relations with my own parents yet we know that above all these relations, we both are there for each other…even in times of needs concerning our respective parents.

I would choose my husband, simply because I already have chosen my husband, and I know that he'd never make me choose. My parents are wonderful people, but they have some definite ideas, ones that my husband and I do not share, and sometimes they still think they have authority over me, when they do not.

I'll take the children and run away to Hawaii... Seriously, I would feel obligated to stand by my husband unless he was just being totally unreasonable and my parents weren't.

I would stay with my husband, whether he is wrong or right. Because i know what ever that he had done, he do it for me and kids. Sometimes parents does not understand with what we had been through, they just give an opinion. They not always right. I will listen just what they said, but maybe i do not do it just like they said. But somehow i would find a way so i can stay in the middle. i still love my parents too

Hey there. You might think of me as preachy to quote the Catholic Church Teachings, but priority must always be given to the husband in terms of decisions. "And for this reason a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh." This is presupposing that marriage would last a lifetime, because indeed that is the ideal of marriage. But then again, if you knew that your husband was leading you to do the wrong things, you'd have to listen to what you feel is right.

I am here because of my parents and their love on me. So i have love on my parents. Presently i am with my wife and son, I love them too. I can not make a choice among them.

I would no doubt to choose to parents instead of choosing my husband, in my point of view I am owing my life to my parents and i don't have the courage forsaken them and i think they will not againts of my husband if they can't see anything bad or wrong from him,In this case, i will choose my parents anyway in this world there is only one mom and dad(parents)but husband is easy to find,who knows. Happy Lotting!

definitely parents; coz they know you more than your spouse. maybe some people would delude themselves into making an image of their partner and would love them because of what they make of them and not because of what they are.

I would be ticked off if anyone expected me to make a choice between my folks or my spouse...but I am lucky in that both love me unconditionally. It would depend on the issue at stake if there was a disagreement, but at the end I wouldn't choose, they would have to be adults and come to some sort of common ground.

I think I will choose my parents.because they grow me up and I need to be thankful.

I would pick my fiance and my kids over my family. I would hate to do that but if they want to put me in the place to do so i would. My fiance has never hurt me and hes a great dad. I cant see my life without him.

i will choose parents cuz i luv them more
