When I hear some of the issues going on in Mormon Land, I usually say to myselfв. He does not place the marriage above it. Your crush will watch you closely to see how you interact with these little ones. I agree she should be able to watch a movie or do her own research.



Her Religion is more important than you will ever be Her Religion comes first and deep down, she will come to hate you for not accepting joining her religion. Like, she thought that serving would remedy her of any doubts or testimony issues. Not in endless discussions of temple marriage, not ever. There is no such thing as a perfect Mormon family- regardless of whether the parents are sealed or not.
Now just ask yourself what are the odds of her thinking her way out that crazy nonsense. By those standards, I was a failure, my husband wasn't "good enough" - and my daughter had ambitious real goals that required a lot of time and effort. That said, I like to hope that love can be more powerful than belief. There's definitely strength in kindred spirits. You're walking into a den of crazy, tbm bishop's daughter, I hate to say it but you should really be contemplative about what you're stepping into. I worked my butt off and supported our family through internship, residency and two fellowships always looking forward to the day when he would finally be in practice and things would get 'easier".
Much good luck, and keep us in the loop. I'm so glad to have found this blog. This came about after many hours and many days of prayer, scripture study, going to the temple, receiving a priesthood blessing, and speaking with people I greatly trust my mom, especially.
