Engagement Rings and What Discussions They Should Trigger

Your engagement ring is a symbol of your love and dedication to your fiancĂ©. This ring will eventually be paired with a wedding band to further express that love.  If you feel as though your relationship is progressing toward the state of marriage, you should first address a few topics before accepting this gorgeous diamond engagement ring.

Do you both want kids? This could be a deal breaker. Many couples in the past could not agree on whether or not to have kids so it is best to discuss this prior to becoming married. Having the mentality of figuring it out after you get married will not work. Have these difficult conversations before the engagement ring…not after it.

If you both want kids, great! Now you need to discuss how you will parent said children. There are many parenting strategies out there. You do not necessarily need an exact plan of action, but you certainly need to be in the same ballpark when it comes to discipline.

Your religion may also be a topic you wish to discuss if you are a devout Christian. Do you want your children to go to church? If so, which kind? Talk about this now instead of later.
