Description

Addressing both the male and female perspective, Babyproofing Your Marriage explores the impact of parenthood on marriage. It attacks the complicated subject by detailing the insights of and lessons learned by both men and women. Quotes from real people, bolstered by the author's own experiences as young mothers and wives, give the work a balanced and honest voice, fuelled by first-hand knowledge.

Like a friend who will give it to you straight, Babyproofing Your Marriage speaks to the listener with candor, humor, and empathy. The book explores many common frustrations, including division of labor disputes, the confusion of changing roles and expectations, the anxiety over sex (or lack thereof), and dealing with parents and in-laws.

Yet rather than just providing reassurance that such aggravations are common, the book offers insight into why marital problems occur and how they can be addressed. This analysis of marital issues is especially fascinating because it clearly demarcates the differences in male and female opinion. Explaining the deep divide between how men and women respond to parenthood, the authors provide a way to bridge the gap; they offer innovative remedies for the negative influence of young children on marriage.

Touching a raw nerve, the book strikes at the heart of who we are as individuals, couples, and families, by discussing subjects that are normally taboo. People don't want to appear disloyal to their spouse or seem resentful of their children, but at the same time, they are desperate to find solutions. With insightful analysis, unique advice, and a humorous tone, Babyproofing Your Marriage will become an indispensable guide for parents everywhere.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Will give you an honest look at how your marriage will forever change once baby makes three....The authors - all married, with seven children among them - don't have fancy initials after their names, and the book is all the better for it. Instead, readers will find funny, honest, and candid observations that will have you realizing: 'So, that's what my spouse is thinking.'" (The Fresno Bee)

Good Tips! Too analytical!

The story shines light on many challenges that new parents face with a baby enters their life. Some of the information was an eye opener however, the story was written in a very analytical manner. There was lots of statistics, other parents experience and reviews and in general kind of not relate-able as everyone's relationship arrangement is different and unique.

Thought this was written in the 70s

After finishing this book I was sure this would’ve been written from half a century ago, but was shocked to see the title date is 2007. The advice is antiquated and built for a world where women are meant to be barefooting in the kitchen and men seem destined to be out in the workforce. Couldn’t believe how dated the principles of this seemed, and the advice really treats men like they don’t have two brain cells to rub together and women as though they’re all constant nit-pickers. I will need to look elsewhere for useful advice on adjusting to new parenthood.
