The same goes for the person with whom you are in a closest relationship.
No matter what traits or behaviors might bother you about them, at the end of the day, would you be alright with a child turning out just like they are?
This is not only a way to evaluate your partner’s true character, but a way to determine if you actually do want to continue with your relationship — if there are too many red flags, too many habits you wouldn’t want a child to pick up on, the answer might be no.
