1. Examine your own upbringing. What would you like to imitate and what would you like to avoid?
2. Who takes responsibility for discipline in the family? Do you have an agreed strategy with which you both feel comfortable?
3. Write down 3 strengths and 3 weaknesses for each child. What can you do to affirm them in these areas?
4. When you sit down to discuss a situation can you reflect back on what your partner has said on the subject? How do you need to improve your listening skills?
5. Does your current lifestyle give you adequate family time, in your opinion? In what ways will the new situation be different?
6. Do you actively seek time together alone without the children? What opportunities will there be for this in the new situation?
