"We Just Aren't Compatible Anymore"-Being Partners In The New Context Of Parenting
Show Notes

Many couples feel that they “lose” compatibility with their partner post-kids. 
“We used to agree on everything…We used to want to spend time together…We used to have the same goals…Now we can’t agree on anything (parenting styles, sleep, how the kids eat, in-laws etc)…We don’t even want to be around each other we are so tired and just want to sleep…It feels like we don’t want the same things anymore.” 

Stephen Mitchell, PhD and Erin Mitchell, MACP discuss the radical change that parenting brings to a partner relationship and how to keep discovering your compatibility as parenting partners.
