When a couple with young kids comes to me for help after an infidelity, I’m going to ask if it was a one-time thing or a pattern of behavior. It's also important to know HOW the affair ended. Did they stop just because they got caught? Did the other person do the dumping? Or did your spouse come to his or her senses? These details matter because, when children are involved, it’s not so simple to walk away. Your kids will suffer greatly. If we’re not talking about a gross pattern of behavior and if there is remorse and a sincere desire to repair the damage, I’m likely going to suggest you stay and try to work on the marriage.Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.comFollow me on social media:Facebook.com/DrLauraInstagram.com/DrLauraProgramYouTube.com/DrLauraJoin My Family!!Receive my weekly newsletter, upcoming show and event notifications + 20% off my Marriage 101 course & 25% off Merch!

Are Your Kids Calling the Shots?
Do you believe you’re failing as a parent? Does it feel like you’ve lost control and your kids are using tantrums, tears and other strategies to run the show? The first thing you need to understand is that you cannot rationalize with a child. They’re selfish little creatures who want their immediate needs gratified. They are in their emotions and want what they want. And they’ll make a lot of noise while trying to get your attention or bend you to their will. Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.comFollow me on social media:Facebook.com/DrLauraInstagram.com/DrLauraProgramYouTube.com/DrLauraJoin My Family!!Receive my Weekly Newsletter + 20% off my Marriage 101 course & 25% off Merch!

It’s always so touching when two of the most important women in a man’s life actually like one another, and maybe even love each other. While it’s sadly not the norm, I’ve always believed that when a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law can open their hearts to receive the blessing of their relationship ... Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.comFollow me on social media:Facebook.com/DrLauraInstagram.com/DrLauraProgramYouTube.com/DrLauraJoin My Family!!Receive my Weekly Newsletter + 20% off my Marriage 101 course & 25% off Merch!
