Exactly. When pigs fly and hell freezes over and when Antarctica melts over and becomes a desert. The kids get enough attention all day. There's no valid excuse for parents to allow a child to sleep in the bedroom with them. That's sacred ground in my book. And the same goes for pets in the bedroom. I'm not going to be an exhibitionist for some chihuahua or great dane. And nothing kills the privacy and romance like having to push the golden retriever off of the bed so you can have sex with your wife/girlfriend.
Being a good parent does not = being a child's best friend. In fact, if you're not doing things that sometimes make your child dislike you, you're doing something wrong. Setting reasonable boundaries is something that an untrained human doesn't like in the beginning. You will have to set boundaries and your child won't like it. Get used to it or be prepared to live the life of a milquetoast and subservient male who provides and takes care of everyone else and makes sacrifices, while his opinions and rules are not valued or respected.
This is what you're setting yourself up for Backbreaker, if you don't set boundaries. This will be your life. You will be nothing more than a disrespected slave in a relationship where the compromises are all one-sided. When necessary, you have to be MORE persistent, MORE unyielding, and MORE intolerant of certain things than your wife is or she will walk all over you. There's room for flexibility in life and this applies in certain situations, but in other situations you need to have a zero-tolerance policy. This is one of them.
