Actually, when people like cheerfulgreek make this about religious doctrine, it becomes about more than what works for you as a couple/family. The premise of bringing in religious doctrine is that you are doing what is pleasing in a religious sense. Within this context, if what is pleasing in a religious sense is subjective, what is the point of citing religious text? Is the religious text saying nothing more than to pray and talk to your spouse to determine the best outcome for you and yours? If so, then, okay. If that is not why religion was brought into the discussion and the "whatever works for you" is just said to avoid religious debate, womp womp.
The "whatever works for you" goes without saying but some posts in this thread on all sides of the issue have a tone that what works for us doesn't have to apply to everyone else...but if you're wise/religiously saved/smart/etc. you'll do it the way we're doing it. LOL.
