Are you unknowingly making THIS critical mistake in your parenting that could be destroying your marriage?

Many well-meaning parents who practice attachment-focused parenting fall into the trap of coddling their sensitive child.

They save their child from ever experiencing negative emotions.

They always put their child's needs above their own and their spouse's.

They avoid setting any limits, for fear of upsetting their sensitive child.

The result? A co-dependent relationship forms between parent and child...

And the marriage starts to crumble under the strain.

If you're noticing more tension and less connection in your marriage since becoming parents to a sensitive child...
