Married After Kids

Ep. 151: What Is The Default Parent?


Listen Later

Have you heard the term default parent before? It’s something that impacts every household, yet not everyone is talking about it openly to create better relationship dynamics. Join me on this episode as I share more about what it means to be the default parent and how it affects your marriage. 

 

Tune in to discover:

  • What it really means to be the default parent

  • Who usually ends up as the default parent, backed by research and 16 years in my own practice

  • The symptoms and characteristics of default parent syndrome

  • Common reasons for resentment in default parents (and what we can do about it)

  • How having a strong mindset can help you feel so much better in your relationship, even when you’re not feeling supported right now

  • Take away practical tips tailored for both default and non-default parents to find balance in your family dynamic

 

How does the default/non-default parent dynamic play out in your own relationship? I’d love to know!
