Seeing Life Through Your Spouse’s Temper...

FOCUS ON THE FAMILY
About this episode

Anyone who's been married for a while will tell you that you and your spouse will have different perspectives sometimes. Dr. Kevin Leman and Jim Daly explain how you need to learn to see things through your spouse's eyes. Also, the Smalley's provide some hope if your temperament was negatively impacted by a critical-eyed parent growing up.
