Most new parents quickly discover that the arrival of a newborn-and the subsequent changes in priorities and lifestyle-can put a tremendous strain on even the best of marriages. In fact, research indicates that sixty-seven percent of new parents complain they are having less sex, less fun, and more arguments than before kids entered the picture.
Now, Dr. Carol Ummel Lindquist, marriage counselor and happily married mother of two, explores why parenthood can sometimes wreak havoc on dreams of a happily ever after-and reveals what couples can do to make their marriages solid and satisfying. Inspired by the author's twenty-five years of professional experience-and her own successful marriage-Happily Married with Kids shows readers how to:
€ Avoid the real parent trap: exhaustion and disruption
€ Manage conflicts and improve communication
€ Stay best friends with one's spouse
€ Balance work and home
€ Enjoy their kids-and each other-at every age
€ Revive their sex life
€ Find humor in everyday difficulties
€ Make time for themselves and their marriage
