"The 10 Golden Rules
1 Don't neglect your marriage: it is the glue that keeps the family together.
2 Being a parent and a perfectionist don't sit easily together. Instead, aim for good enough.
3 The main job of a parent is to take your children's feelings seriously, but this doesn't mean giving in to every whim, rather explaining why something is not possible or sensible.
4 Happy relationships need good communication skills as well as love and connection.
5 In disputes about how to raise your children, there are no right or wrong answers. Listen to each other, be assertive and negotiate.
6 Don't draw children into adult issues or let them take sides.
7 Encourage your children to be self-sufficient and don't become their servant. In this way, you will have more time to invest in your relationship.
8 You need to feel loved by your partner and not just a service provider. To this end it is important to be romantic, have fun together and make sex a priority.
9 When there's a problem, try not to label your partner or the children as the cause: look at your own contribution.
10 If something is good enough for your children, it is probably good enough for your partner, too."
