Its up to them if they want to live like that forever or not?. What I have found true however is that it is far and away more easy for 2 people to slide downhill than it is for one person to drag the other uphill. But if a husband wants to be a true leader, then sometimes he has to lead by example. In this case leading by example would be to start down the path and then serve as a guide for your wife to follow.
Im just saying that you both dont come off too well in this one example. If you have time, you might want to go over this video and just count the number of times you both clearly showed a lack of "something" toward the other person. I dont know what the answer is. I just know what Im seeing, and what Im seeing is not all that healthy for the both of you kids.
Ah! "Friedrich Engels (November 28, 1820 -- August 5, 1895) was a German social scientist and philosopher, who developed communist theory alongside his better-known collaborator, Karl Marx, co-authoring The Communist Manifesto (1848). Engels also edited the second and third volumes of Das Kapital after Marx's death."
