    it's easy, a great dad. any guy who is a great dad, is going to care about his wife too. and no, I'm not choosing sides. while he might focus too much on the child, and I as a wife might feel left out, I'd rather have someone good with our children, who helps the future of my family, than someone who is horrible with our children but good with me. I personally would feel like a horrible mom if my children weren't always before myself. (though I personally would put my husband first)

    I would choose great husband because children grow up and leave the nest but husbands and wives are hopefully together for life. So I would always want him to be a great husband which would autimatically make him a great dad .

    If I was a single mother, I would have to choose the guy that was a great father. I would always put my child's needs in front of my own...and I believe children need a strong father figure in their lives...and nothing is a better father figure than a dad.

    I would choose a man that would be a great husband. Then if he did not treat the children right when we had them, I would leave him!!!

    Better father by far. Speaking from my own experience, not having a father there for you impacts the rest of your life. I would hate to see my future children affected by that. The time a father spends with his children is more important than the relationship between mother and father.
