Overview
Whether you’re having a biological child, adopting or fostering a child, or stepping into the parental role that comes with becoming a caregiver, parenting can feel like a daunting task accompanied by endless responsibilities.
Couples and individuals may have questions or concerns regarding starting a family or parenting, and some of these concerns can be difficult for couples to discuss without an argument. For example, differences in perhaps one member of the couple having a strong desire to be a parent while the other does not, the age of the child, reproductive costs, or parenting skills/strategies. This is when the benefit of having support while navigating your families and parenting decisions can encourage a couple to come to an agreement or in settling their differences.
