Who Are The Men Who Get Treated Like Kings?
In a post about why some women get "treated like princesses" (https://www.drpsychmom.com/treated-like-a-princess/) I discuss how some women feel that it is random and unlucky that they don't get treated well by men, or that women who do get treated well by men are somehow exploiting these men. In fact, people get treated well if they are good partners in healthy relationships. There are no hacks and no coincidences. If you yearn to be treated better by your wife, think deeply about whether this dynamic ever existed and what your contribution to it is!

When Your Mental Health Improves... And It Tanks Your Marriage
This is very common, although people tend to be surprised by it. One person works on their anxiety, anger, depression, or anything else, and instead of the marriage getting better... it implodes! Here's why this happens, the movie I recommend about it, and what to do about it.

Does Couples Therapy Really Improve Sex Lives?

When Women Are Scared To Be Alone With Kids
This is very common in women who have undiagnosed or unrecognized depression, anxiety, and/or childhood trauma. Listen to see if it may resonate with you more than you would guess! And if you're a husband... listen if you have come to realize that your wife is extremely uncomfortable or angry about any time spent in "solo parenting"... or if everyone is always crying/dysregulated or life activities haven't been done after her time alone with them.

"Spirit Week" And Constant School Emails Are Unfair To Kids And Parents Alike
