Don't expect change
Ladies, don't keep fall into the trap of thinking:
"My boyfriend acts like such a baby, he won't be that way when we have a real baby in the house."
"Surely, he'll grow up when we have kids."
"Oh, he won't want to play video games and will start eating more vegetables once he becomes a father."
Get over that school of thought quick! You can't change how a person is. It's not a fair assumption. That's like your significant other expecting you to change when little ones arrive. "Once we have kids, she'll relax. She won't be such a organized clean freak anymore. No more calendars on the frig, no more marathon cleaning weekends." Yeah right.
