Oh, man. We go from AI and dating a chat bot to what reasonable expectations for marriage are. It's a doozy.

Without even being aware of it, we can often involve our kids in grown-up issues and conversations that can damage their relationship with the other parent. Let' talk about why and how you should avoid it, what the benefits are, and how to change tactics is you've been guilty of it.

In the early years, Jen used to call her dad to take care of things around the house instead of asking Todd to handle it. In this episode, they explore why. Sometimes, we fail to take the concerns of our spouse seriously because they aren’t a huge concern for us, but when we do that, it causes us to not feel cared for. This goes both ways-for the husband and the wife. They share how a little more communication can make a huge difference. And…Jen goes a little crazy with her color coded thanksgiving grocery list!
