If you want healthy stable kids. John Rosemund makes a clear case that kids suffer when the spousal relationship is not healthy. And yet many parents in our modern world obsess over their children as if they are the center of the universe, and more important than the other even more critical base relationship.
If you doubt this, just look at how many kids are living in single parent homes, unstable homes or stressed homes. Then we wonder why so many kids struggle to become capable independent educated healthy adults.
Now I am not saying that a couple should neglect or mistreat their kids. However placing them on a pedestal and living your lives around them is not good for them either.
The Parenting Pyramid depicts and explains this wonderfully. Now remember to schedule the babysitter and go out for that date...
