[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also have way more kids than the DCUM norm so no shade on that. What you need is a project for you and DH that isn’t your kids, something you can do together than plays to one or both of your strengths, can furnish a topic of conversation, and just makes you spend time together without kids (or with kids in the vicinity but that’s not ABOUT kids). Recreate the premodern “family as economic unit” phenomenon, with a hobby. Whether that’s a long-running board game or building a garden or cooking your way through Julia Child or renovating a bathroom or starting a blog depends on your personalities and interests, but it’s hard to get a lot out of “quality time” where you just sit around and gaze into each other’s eyes if you don’t have a lot of time to actually engage together on something else. [/quote] +100 All of this. Works for us (5 kids).[/quote]
