Yeah, And it's 217 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: not for twenty something because it's a second job, and 218 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: that you're talking about an adult. Now you're not talking 219 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: about a teenager.

I 389 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: also have heard it can be very competitive, where like 390 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: people will find a good babysitter and they don't want 391 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: to tell their friends about her because they want to 392 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: make sure that she's available. 393 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's real on. 394 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 1: Like Saturday nights for them, And so a lot of 395 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: them will pay even more to make sure that they're 396 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: the preferred house, right Exactly, You can flip the script 397 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: and be like, hey, if I'm paying a premium rate, 398 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: like so let's say thirty bucks. People seem to agree 399 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: on the text that in our little focus group here, 400 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: that that thirty bucks is a premium rate for a 401 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: babysitter if I'm paying that, what language do you speak?

You guys, stay safe out there. 409 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: Honestly, if I ever had a kid, and I don't 410 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: think it's happening, but if I ever had a kid, 411 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: we were saying this off the air, like I would 412 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: absolutely if I had babysitters or help or whatever, if 413 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: I if I could afford that, then I would. Those 414 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: people would bring something to the table that I well, 415 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: in addition to like knowing how to deal with children 416 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: they like and keeping them safe and things like that 417 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: that I don't know how to feed them and things 418 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: I don't know how to do, they would have to 419 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: I mean a language, like like different sort of perspective, 420 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: and I would almost be do you speak to little 421 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: Freddie and whatever whatever your native tongue is, Like that's 422 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: the that you guys can interact like that, because yes, 423 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: because because I want my kid to be way smarter 424 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 1: than I am here and I don't. I think speaking 425 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: more than one language is almost has become like the 426 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: way it needs it should be the way it is 427 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: in the world. So say or go. This is a 428 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 1: note that we got and this woman does not want 429 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: to be on the air, but she wanted us to 430 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: read this entire email. So I want to know what 431 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: you guys think. We're debating some relationship dramming her. I 432 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: feel like this is pretty relatable eight five, five, five, nine, 433 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: one one oh three five. Unfortunately, I think people can 434 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: relate to this, but it says Dear Fred's show. I'm 435 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: struggling to decide if I should stay with my husband 436 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 1: of three years together for nine and would love some insight. 437 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: We started having problems about two years ago, and I 438 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: feel like we just can't seem to stay in a 439 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 1: happy place. I did start going to therapy shortly after 440 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: the problem started, and actually he did too. We even 441 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 1: started doing couples sessions in addition to our individual sessions. 442 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: They seem to help for a bit, at least in 443 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: the sense that we'd fix the problem, but then after 444 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: a few weeks we'd be having the same arguments all 445 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: over again. We just had a baby in March and 446 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: he was two months early, so that led to a 447 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 1: five week nick You stay for him and a Ronald 448 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 1: McDonald house stay for us. To say that that tested 449 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: our relationship would be an understatement. I guess part of 450 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: me really hoped that he would finally step up to 451 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: be the man I wanted and needed once he became 452 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: a father. Don't get me wrong, he is not a 453 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: bad person. But I feel like I'm putting all my 454 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: energy into saving our relationship, but despite me asking, he's 455 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: not doing the same. I never wanted a broken family 456 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: for my baby, but I know that I also don't 457 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 1: want him to grow up in a home full of 458 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: anger and arguments. I've contemplated staying until my baby is 459 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: a year old, but even that has started to feel 460 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 1: like an impossible challenge. I'm starting to wonder if we're 461 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 1: even compatible anymore, but I don't know what the right 462 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: answer is. I would love all of your input. Thanks 463 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: for your time. First of I don't know none of 464 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: us fortunately have any experience in You know all of that. 465 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: You've got a relationship that with struggles. You've got a 466 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: kid now, a kid that was sick. I mean, I 467 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: know that that is incredibly stressful for relationships, and so 468 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 1: you add that challenge to all of this, and it's like, 469 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: you know, what person am I getting? Right? 470 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 8: Like? 471 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: Am I We're so stressed out? You know, we're trying 472 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: to take care of our baby, and so, I mean, 473 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,959 Speaker 1: you separate that from all of this, But they were 474 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: having problems before that. Again, I don't know that it's 475 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: fair to judge people when they're under pressure, but they're 476 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: both under pressure and she doesn't feel supported. And I 477 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: don't know how he feels because we haven't heard his 478 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: side of it. But eight five, five, five, nine one 479 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: one oh three five I'm curious what would you guys 480 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: do in this situation? I mean, this woman, you know, 481 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: she doesn't feel like she's connecting with their partner anymore, 482 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: and you know they have gone to therapy and they 483 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: at least she's tried. It seems. I don't know what 484 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 1: comes to mind. You're the married one, what would you do? 485 00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 4: I am a married woman. 486 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 9: You said, the situation is a little bit different, and 487 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 9: you know there's uh they were they have a child right, 488 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 9: and then there was some health stuff going on. But 489 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 9: I do feel like the first i'd say almost two 490 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 9: years of being postpartum as a woman is already just 491 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 9: extremely difficult, and I think it's difficult for both parties right, 492 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 9: Like you're not going to connect as much. You're not 493 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 9: going to feel the same as you did, like you 494 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 9: know when you first met or even when you first 495 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 9: like got married or whatever. It might be just because 496 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 9: there's so much going on the first year for sure, 497 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 9: but I almost extended to two years of post baby life. 498 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 4: Life is different. 499 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 9: They're going through a lot of stuff right now too, 500 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 9: and they did with their own child. So I feel 501 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 9: like if both parties want to, like exactly like in 502 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 9: therapy discussed this, do you want to be in this relationship? 503 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 4: Do you want to work through this? 504 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 9: Because if you don't, then one person's already out the 505 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 9: door whatever, then I would say. 506 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 4: This isn't gonna work. 507 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 9: But I feel like it's so hard when you are 508 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 9: freshly postpartum, so really like make that choice right or 509 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 9: to feel like, oh, do I want to be in 510 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 9: this relationship or not? Because they say it's the hard 511 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 9: it's a challenges relationships and marriages a lot, and. 512 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 3: They were having problems beforehand, and I think she's just 513 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 3: looking for some effort. 514 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 4: It's interesting. Yeah, I don't know. 515 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 3: That's hard if you're already having existing issues. We know, 516 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 3: kids don't fix anything, They make them more difficulty. 517 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: That's what I mean. Like, the problem was there, and 518 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 1: then they introduce a kid, and then you introduce some 519 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: of the biological things that occur anyway, and then on 520 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: top of that you introduce the stress of the kid 521 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: being early and those challenges. 522 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say, like you said, have a conversation 523 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 3: where it's just a blacker white question do you want 524 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:32,360 Speaker 3: to save this? 525 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: You know? 526 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 3: And both parties answer, And then if there is no 527 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 3: emotional or physical abuse, I say, then try to maybe 528 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 3: work through it a little bit more, because it would 529 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 3: be a very difficult time to go through a separation 530 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 3: as well, and it is hard on both parties. But 531 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 3: she said that getting to the end of the year 532 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 3: even sounds difficult for her right now, which makes me wonder, 533 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 3: you know, what else is going on? 534 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey Jen, Hello, good morning, Hi young, good morning. 535 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: So you heard this scenario and stare going You're saying 536 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: stay why I say stay? 537 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 8: So my husband and I are actually going through almost 538 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 8: the exact same thing, Like it's crazy and saying, how 539 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 8: many couples are going through this right now? So what's 540 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 8: helping us is actually reading that book the Five Love Languages. Yeah, 541 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 8: a popular one, and it teaches people what your partner's 542 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 8: language might be, and it could be like two different languages, 543 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 8: like he's speaking one and she's speaking another, and they're 544 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 8: just not on the same page. So getting an insight 545 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 8: like that and actually writing something down like Okay, well 546 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 8: this would make me feel loved or this would make 547 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 8: me feel hurt or open, and then they both do 548 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,360 Speaker 8: the same thing and it's like, oh okay, something might 549 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 8: click and they understand each other better. And the whole 550 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:46,959 Speaker 8: thing with a baby and the nick you, we actually 551 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 8: had that too, and it's really hard and having a 552 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 8: new baby it puts so much stress on a relationship. 553 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 8: But you have to like try and look at all 554 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 8: your options to see what helps you guys reconnect and 555 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 8: understand each other because communication is so important, and if 556 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 8: they're like speaking totally different languages towards each other, it's 557 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 8: never gonna help. 558 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: The love language thing is temporarily better. To your point, 559 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: you and the love language thing is really impactful, because 560 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,479 Speaker 1: you're right. I mean, I could be communicating you know 561 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 1: in a way, or I could be sharing my affection 562 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: with you in a way that isn't as useful as 563 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: a different way. You know. Maybe I'm a gift giver, 564 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: or maybe I'm a time spent person in your words 565 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: of affirmation person and so here I think I'm putting 566 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 1: in the effort, but it's not landing with you. It's 567 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: not resonating with you the way I wanted to because 568 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: I'm not connecting with you in a way that would 569 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: be more productive. 570 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 8: Yes, it's so real. How that is like that my 571 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 8: husband and I were completely different too, So like we're 572 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 8: trying so hard. I have to like we're ready to 573 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 8: post it notes now like I felt this such and 574 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 8: such way, and then it will come back to it later. 575 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 8: Because he's a talker and he's the more the physical 576 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 8: touch with I think most guys are, and I'm the 577 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 8: quality time type of person. So it's they might just 578 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 8: have very different things. So I think she should stay 579 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 8: for now and really look at all the options. So 580 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 8: I'm curious to know if the therapists that they've been 581 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 8: going to even suggest to that or you know, brought 582 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 8: something like that to their attention. 583 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you, Jen, I appreciate it, and I hope 584 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: everything gets better. Thank good. Yeah, glad you called it. 585 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: And there are a few people on the text saying 586 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,959 Speaker 1: and you do hear this sometimes like if things are 587 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: going so poorly, then why have a child? Well, I 588 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: mean there are lots of variables there, like did they 589 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,479 Speaker 1: mean to have the child? And then yeah, this sir, 590 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: I've heard of scenarios where things are going terribly and 591 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: it's like, well, let's let's make a kid and then 592 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 1: that'll bring us closer together. Now that's not necessarily great logic. 593 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't say let's add a really really 594 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 1: stressful element to something that's already not working. But I 595 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I think there are people that 596 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: just relationships are hard. And I'm saying this mostly based 597 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: on what I know. I'm not firsthand, but relationship. I 598 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,439 Speaker 1: think we would all agree relationships are hard, and so 599 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 1: I think maybe some people just assume that it's going 600 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: to be challenging and then they still go about their 601 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: goals of creating a family. And maybe for her, the 602 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: idea of divorcing him really wasn't on the forefront until recently, 603 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: you know. So it's like, well, I'm not going to 604 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: leave him, We're going to work through this. It's a 605 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 1: hard time, we're going to get past it. But then 606 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 1: as issues compound, it gets worse. So I don't know 607 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: that it's as simple as why go and have a 608 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: kid when things aren't going well? I don't know that that. 609 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. We don't know enough to say if 610 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: that was the logic or not. Hey Emily, Hey hi Emily, 611 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: you hear this day? Orgo? What do you think? 612 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,959 Speaker 7: I think that she needs to take all the energy 613 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 7: she's spending worrying about her marriage and everything else. 614 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: And just focus on the child. They didn't. 615 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 7: It doesn't sound like they were in a solid place 616 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 7: before the child. It's not going to get better. And like, honestly, 617 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 7: she didn't list any reason for being with him, you know, 618 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 7: and agresan it could be she's health insurance or x 619 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 7: y Z, but it's like, you know, why is one 620 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:52,679 Speaker 7: to enhance your life, not someone that's going to. 621 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: Make it more stressful. Well, in fairness, if she's going 622 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: to do that, Emily, if she's not, if she's just 623 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: going to sort of abandon any effort towards the relationship. 624 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: It then she should leave it, right, because that's not 625 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: going to help anything. If she just says, all right, 626 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna pretending this guy's not even there and focus 627 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: on my kid, well, then then leave right. No, no, yeah, 628 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: I said leave. 629 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 7: But she should focus on healthy relationship and just focus 630 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 7: on the child. 631 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because we're yeah, Okay, I get what you're saying. 632 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,360 Speaker 1: Thank you, Emily, you have a good day. Yeah, fe 633 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: glad you called. Hey Katie, Hi, Katie, Hi, are you hi? 634 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: Good morning?

So we so we 637 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 6: have my husband and I have been together or we've 638 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 6: been married for ten years together almost fourteen, four kids, 639 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 6: lots of stress. We almost lost our two months or 640 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 6: our baby when she was two months old TURFB. So 641 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 6: we were at the university for a few weeks. We 642 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,239 Speaker 6: just dealt with a two months stay at Riley with 643 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 6: my nine year old for crones. Okay, So we've had 644 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 6: a lot of a lot of stressful situations with our kids. 645 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 6: Health wise, money's tight. We both work full time, but 646 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 6: supporting four kids is difficult. But you're going to have 647 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 6: a lot of these stressful situations in your marriage and 648 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 6: you kind of just have to look at each other 649 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 6: and say is it worth it? And you just have 650 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 6: to stop and say, you know, I love you, you love me. 651 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 6: At the end of the day, that's all we need. 652 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 8: We're going to just work through it. 653 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean it takes a lot of strength. 654 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: There are people saying in the text. One says, does 655 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 1: he do have his half of the parenting? If he 656 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: doesn't now, he never will. Do you think that's true? 657 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: I mean, is it if the effort is there? I mean, 658 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: is that what we're looking for. We're looking for the effort. 659 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: Even if you disconnect, you're. 660 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 6: You're going to put into it what you want to 661 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 6: put into it. So if he's not wanting to put 662 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 6: that effort towards it, then maybe stop and you know, 663 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 6: look at what you are dealing with. But I mean, 664 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,199 Speaker 6: it's a fifty to fifty thing, especially when you have 665 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 6: kids and when you're both working. Everyone has to work now, 666 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 6: and if he's not putting toward his effort and he hasn't, 667 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 6: then you kind of need to you know, look at 668 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 6: that and say maybe this isn't worth it. 669 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 4: She did say his effort is lacking. 670 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 3: That's what she told me, and she's asked multiple times 671 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 3: she feels like she's putting in more effort for the relationship. 672 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: Then yes, well then. 673 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 6: I mean you can have that conversation with him, and 674 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 6: if he doesn't seem to get it, then that would 675 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 6: definitely be something that I would kind of look into 676 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 6: a little bit further. 677 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: Well, Katie, thank you for listening, for sharing, and good luck. 678 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 8: Thank you you too. 679 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a good day. And again, you know, 680 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: if he were unwilling to get any sort of outside help, 681 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: be it you know, therapy or faith based or whatever 682 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: it is, then you could say, well, maybe he's depressed 683 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: or he has some sort of something going on with 684 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: him that if that's rectified, then that might improve the situation. 685 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: Because sometimes, you know, you can get in your own 686 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: head to where everything seems daunting and then you're not 687 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: really maybe feeling like you're being productive or valuable to anyone. 688 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: But it sounds like he's done some of that. So 689 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: he has made an effort. I don't know how much, 690 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: but it's it's not as though he's living this way 691 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: and then saying why, well, I'm not going to do 692 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: anything about it, which we do here sometimes in this thing. Hey, 693 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: Laurie nice, you went through something similar and you say go. 694 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: We've had stay and we've had go from people who 695 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: know this. Unfortunately, why why go? Because he's not going 696 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: to change, and how do we know we can? 697 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 5: Well, I went through it. I hoped that when the 698 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 5: why curse, that when the baby came, he would step up, 699 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 5: you know, be there. And he was sometimes sometimes he 700 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 5: was great, and then he would go back to doing 701 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 5: what he wanted to do and not be in there. 702 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 5: And it was fighting, and I tried to five years 703 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 5: to make it work. But the same thing. He'll get 704 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 5: you know, he's going to step up, He's going to 705 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 5: step up. He was a great guy. 706 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 4: He's still a great guy. 707 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 8: We're still friends. We co parented together. 708 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 5: But the unhappiness he never went away. We tried, you know, 709 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 5: working it out, and we tried working it out, and 710 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 5: he would get better for a little bit, and then 711 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 5: he would just slide right back into his ways of 712 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 5: doing what he wanted to do. And he was a 713 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 5: great husband and a great father when. 714 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 8: He wanted to be. 715 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 4: So no consistent, but count on him no consistency. 716 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: Well, Laurie, I'm sorry, but I appreciate their perspective. Have 717 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: a good day you too. I'm not sure we've helped 718 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: much because you get a lot of people who've been 719 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: through this calling in and it's about fifty to fifty 720 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,239 Speaker 1: go stay, go.
