Sarah Palin for VP? - Many are cheering for another woman taking center stage, and many are worried that this is a woman who's been promoted for the wrong reasons and is going to be blamed when things don't go right.

Have you ever thought about joining the military? I can't say that I ever have and here are some of my reasons. Please feel free to comment and add yours!

I love both of our children. Me and my husband began talking when I was pregnant with my first who was by another man and we began dating after I gave birth to my son. His father wanted nothing to do with my child so my husband decided to take over the role of father for him and he's been great. I worry though because we've had another son since then and he was conceived between me and my husband (my husband's first son) but yet my husband is far more attached to my first son than he is to our second. I think it's because my first son was the reason we got together and we've all been through a lot as just the three of us. I make sure to treat both of our sons equally but my husband does not. He admits to me in private that he loves them both but he has so much more a bond with my first and I see it whenever he and our two sons are playing together. he gives 95% of the attention to the older son. So in my mind to balance it out I think I've subconciously given more love and attention to my second son. I want my love for them to be equal but it's not because of the way my husband feels. I feel how I do and he feels how he does...I hate it, though. I just wish we could love them both equally......

You're scaring me. My husband and I also began talking when I was pregnant with my first, who is now 5 years old. We got together shortly after she was born. I'm pregnant now with our first child together. We don't know if it's a boy or a girl yet.

My husband is the only daddy my daughter has. He loves her dearly, and 100% considers her to be his own. I hope he is the same way with this new one. I had no idea that some people in his position were not... I'll have to talk to him about this.

I'm sort of in the same boat, except my son was a year when we got together. We have twin girls together, and he plays with my son a lot more often than he'll sit and hold a baby. I think its just because dads love to play, so they're better around older children who can do more. I wouldn't worry about it too much as of yet!

My husband hasn't met our youngest yet. I know he will be excited to see her, but I also know it will be nothing compared to how he will react toward our oldest daughter. He just hasn't had the chance to make a bond yet. I know it will be fine in the end though. He was the same way with our first-a little stand offish until she was older and they could really play.

You didn't mention how old your kids are; but it is really normal for men to not really "bond" with their kids until the kids are a little more interactive. Just meaning, he probably has a lot of fun with the older one, because they can play. As the little ones grows, he will find more to do with him, and their bond will grow too :)

We only have one, but my husband has gotten closer to my daughter as she's gotten older. A lot of men just don't enjoy babies and toddlers. They love their children, but get more genuine enjoyment from older kids. Heck, I loved holding my baby and playing with my toddler, but now that she's 10, she's much more fun for me too.

I think that might be all this is. Hope so!

Perhaps he just relates to older children better.

I'm also kind of in the same boat as you. We got together when my daughter was about 3-4 months and he loves her like his own. I fear that once we have a child of our own, he will love him/her more than our daughter. I've told him about this and he swears he will love them both equally. Just talk to your husband, make sure he really understands where you're coming from. Let him know your fears about your children. I know from experience it is not fair to them when parents have favorites. I agree with the others though, it may just be temporary until she grows a little more.
