ANECDOTE

Overcrowded House, Strained Boundaries

  • Joy reports six people in an 850 sq ft, two‑bed townhouse with a newborn, which strains marriage and parenting.
  • Use that reality to justify asking that the 17‑year‑old not move with you.
ADVICE

Paint A Picture To Be Understood

  • Use concrete scenes to explain what 'my house' feels like so your partner can see your needs.
  • Dr. John Delony suggests vivid examples like walking around without covering up to shift his picture.
