Thanks for writing this – all very valid points over a particularly contentious issue that can eventually lead to making or breaking a relationship.

If you’re serious about building a future together, it’s crucial to be on the same page with each other and be honest in order to work towards a common goal rather than shy away from this touchy issue completely.
