I just got back from goose hunting with my significantly better half.....and my two sons. The boys detect with me, and she is interested in trying it too. Of course, my girl is up for all sorts of adventure. I am richly blessed in this department.......now.
My children's mother was another story. It started out that I worshipped the ground she walked on. 11 years later she more or less walked on the ground where I worshipped.
You need to make sure she realizes that she, and that little guy, would come before work, or detecting, or anything else for that matter. Then, once she understands that you aren't detecting/hunting/fishing/pickahobby to avoid her, she can begin to trust and respect you. Women need love to be happy. Men need respect. When you have it right, they will both flow both ways.
Good luck to you, and I hope things calm down.
