This was really helpful! I agree with all these distinctions and points and have tried to structure our family keeping many of them in mind, but your way of organizing and wording all this is a helpful and sober reminder to me to not grow complacent in attending to each of these things and in remembering the huge responsibility I've taken on by having a large family (we have 7 children). God is faithful, but far be it from us to not love our wives and children well, or to be a bad witness to the watching world by not attending to our callings with discernment.

It always helps to have the extended familiy nearby. We don´t have that many children but both grandmothers are within hands reach and spend time with the children regularly. This really helps to free up some time to spend on other stuff that needs to get done.
