[QUOTE="Andy, post: 247248, member: 5096"] I think that would be perfectly acceptable. After all, that is what your goal to the sessions are. Can't work on the goals if they are not spelled out in the beginning. Make a list of the things you miss - your memories from the early days of the marriage as a start of what you would like to see happening. Let him know that you feel that many of these things were lost when "his" child was born. That it seems like he dropped you and your other child at that point and now only cares about "his" child. (That was one of your situations? Or am I getting you mixed up with someone else?) Make a list of things that you believe will help get your family back on the path you want to be on. Than choose one or two (no more than three) to work on at a time. The first two I would suggest would be 1. Date night once a week and 2. Family time once a week. I suggest the family time because his relationship with every person of the family also reflects on your relationship with him. You can not feel great if you feel one child is being favored over the other. Your roles as parents during family time will also strengthen your roles as a couple. This weekend is giving you time to ponder things and work on what you need. I think spelling things out during counselling sessions is what the sessions are for. [/QUOTE]
