Books Great parents Lousy Lovers

Great Parents, Lousy Lovers by Dr. Gary Smalley addresses the challenge many couples face of balancing the demands of parenting with maintaining a strong, intimate relationship. In this book, Smalley discusses how the roles of "parent" and "lover" can often conflict, leading to a lack of emotional and physical connection between partners. He offers practical advice and strategies for couples to nurture both their relationship with their children and their marriage.

Smalley emphasizes the importance of communication, mutual support, and prioritizing each other’s needs, even in the midst of parenting responsibilities. The book aims to help couples rediscover intimacy and strengthen their bond while being effective and loving parents.
