How To Communicate With Your Spouse

The decisions you need to make as a couple, whether it's agreeing on who is going to clean the house, how to discipline the kids, handle the finances, set boundaries with the in-laws, or who helps the kids with their homework, are endless when it comes to dividing and conquering the many roles and responsibilities within the marriage relationship.  Making these decisions can be a challenge if you and your spouse struggle to get on the same page and agree on a direction to take.
