✨ In this video, I respond to advice given by Dr. John Delony on The Dr. John Delony Show. A wife called in asking whether it would be okay to have a third child even though her husband is worried about the financial strain and the toll the first year of life takes on a marriage.

Dr. Delony encouraged the wife that it’s okay to move forward with another baby and figure out the money later. While I respect his perspective, I share why I disagree with this approach. I believe that finances, emotional health, and marital stability need to be discussed and prepared for before making such a life-changing decision.

👶 Topics we’ll cover in this video:

  • Why financial preparation matters when planning for another child
  • The reality of how a baby impacts marriage in the first year
  • Healthy ways for spouses to communicate when they don’t agree on family planning
  • Why love for children isn’t enough to shield a marriage from stress without preparation

💬 Do you agree with Dr. John Delony’s advice, or do you think couples should prioritize financial and emotional readiness first? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
