I think most people would find your favoring your wife over your children to be upside down.

My post sounded much colder than it is. I don't favor my wife over my children, however, in about 3 years my youngest will be off to college. In 10 years, I expect both of my children will have started their own families, and they will have a wife or husband of their own (who will, of course, be more important to them than I).

I will still be with my wife for another 30 years or so.

In that context, do you understand why I put my wife at the highest level of importance?

Yeah, I thought about saying something like 'when my kids are 15 and 17 it might be different.' They are 5 and 7 now.
