In this episode we go somewhere we've never gone before and have a discussion as parents, rather than a couple focusing on an addicted relationship. Talking to kids about addiction is extremely difficult to navigate, it's even more difficult when you're talking to them about their own mother or father. We touch on ways to address the subject in an age appropriate way, what not enough discussion and too much discussion looks like, boundaries around details, parentification and emotional incest, and much much more.
