Parenting Differences
I am so nervous about raising this child the right way. My husband and I are two different people from two very different families. My family is very traditional and conservative in their ways, old fashioned if you will. I never partied, never smoke or drank, only slept with my husband, my family never argued in front of people, always behind closed doors and it was in a conversation without yelling, very focused on family and God. His family is complete opposite. They are very money-motivated, yell and cuss at each other, materialistic, husband started having sex when he was 12, started chewing when he was 12 as well with his parents supplying him with the tobacco. He went to his first college party at 15. My problem is that he wants to raise our child much differently than what I do. His father showed him a porn video when he was 5 and I learned about sex through sex Ed and putting two and two together myself. If we have a boy, he wants to do the same thing as his father and I just don't want that to happen. I want our child to appreciate life and love, not just think like and girls are about sex. Basically, what can I do to help convince him otherwise?! I just can't allow my child to have a childhood like that.
