Why does there have to be a ranking order? Essentially your daughter has needs, and any potential mate has needs. However those needs are not mutually exclusive, nor are they even the same in most cases.

All of a sudden not only is your daughter #1 but so is the girl who is helping you with your daughter.
Question for the married couples out there with children, do you think of your child as #1 and wife as #2, or vice-versa, or are they both different but equally on top?

I think you are pretty much right on with your evaluation. I am married, with childern. My husband and my kids are both #1, and as you said, "both different but equally on top." It has always that way. I can't imagine anything dividing a relationship more than putting one over the other.
That said, the girl in this case was selfish.
