The last few months have created some unusual challenges for couples. Different family routines, fewer opportunities to go and have fun, plus worrying about work and finances means we may have neglected the most intimate relationship of all – the one we share with our partner. When day-to-day life is stressful, we can take out our stress on those closest to us and even take each other for granted. But parenting is much easier when parents look after their relationship as a couple, support each other and work as a team.Today we have parenting and family psychology expert, Professor Matt Sanders, and couple relationship expert Professor Kim Halford with us to share some great tips for taking care of intimate relationships and supporting your partner.Professor Matt Sanders is ready to answer your questions on the Parenting in a Pandemic podcast. Record your questions on your smartphone voice memo app and email them to [email protected].
