This is such great advice no matter what age your children are. Having a newborn is definitely very difficult but so are the toddler years, the teenage years, and the college years! I love the idea that you need to find time for both connection time and problem-solving/schedule negotiation time. I have never done that and I can see why it is important NOT to mix them.

Love this newsletter so much. After forty years of marriage, three children - all young adults, two full-time careers - now retired, we were recently asked what makes a great marriage. I said communication and he said forgiveness. Those two are so important for longevity in parenting. Susan Landers, MD
