Synopsis

The kids are happy, but how are things really between you and your partner?

In modern parenting, the established wisdom is that you should prioritize the needs of your children above all else. But relationship therapist Andrew G. Marshall argues that couples who tirelessly put their children first are not only sacrificing each other’s needs and desires, but also increasing the chance of marital breakdown and creating unhappy, insecure kids.

I Love You But You Always Put Me Last is about balancing your priorities so you don’t lose sight of your marriage when you become a parent. Based on twenty-five years of counselling experience, this book will help you:

Maintain intimacy and strengthen your bond of love

Work as a team and avoid negative parenting patterns

Provide good relationship role models for your children

Create a strong marriage, confident children and a happy family
