It's February and many parenting partners will be thinking about Valentine's Day. Sometimes it's the special days that can bring the most pressure to meet your partner's expectations and can leave many couples disappointed when expectations are not met.  However, these "big" days can simply be a reflection of how parenting partners communicate about expectations in their day-to-day. In this episode Dr. Stephen Mitchell and Erin Mitchell, MACP talk about how to discover what your expectations are, how to communicate them, and how to get out of the cycle of conflict that unmet expectations can create.
