[quote=Anonymous]It can all be hard, it just depends on your strengths and weaknesses as a couple. We were much more deliberate about hiring a sitter and going in date nights when the kids were in elementary school. Ours are now all teens and I’m finding this period very hard. Big kids, big problems and their schedules don’t align so DH and I split staying up super late and then the other getting up early. On the weekends the house might be settled for only 4-5 hours before someone is awake again. We’re not trying to helicopter but we are trying to be an active presence if that makes sense, but the result is that DH and I never go to bed and rarely get up at the same time which is rough on the se* life.
