Relationships Uncomplicated

Episode 064: Episode 064: Are you in a Parent - Child Relationship With Your Spouse?


Listen Later

Are you and your spouse equal partners in your relationship? Or has one of you become more of a parent to the other?

When a couple starts to fall into a parent-child dynamic, codependency, rather than a balanced, cooperative relationship starts to emerge. Essentially, this means that the overall patterns of communication and behavior push one partner (either the male or the female) into a parent or a child position within the relationship.

In this episode, I do the following:

  • help you take a closer look at what this destructive dynamic may look like
  • share why you shouldn't promote this in your relationship
  • suggest two strategies to avoid it
