  • Strengthening Relationship Bonds

    Dr. Tyler welcomes Professor Marci Gleason PHD back to discuss the impact of parental conflicts and divorce on children. Witnessing problem-solving disagreements is fine, but heated arguments have negative effects. Divorce can benefit high-conflict families but may harm low-conflict ones. They emphasize the importance of communication in relationships and the benefits of receiving support. Exchanging social support in a relationship is more beneficial, reducing negative moods and strengthening bonds. They also touch on parenting and the need to balance protection and healthy risks for growth. All this and more on the next ep. of Primary Care!
