What do you think men and women need to do more of to coexist peacefully, if you might, or to build healthy relationships and to work together? One thing that people aren’t taught to do is to negotiate. If you take a three-year-old and you stand them in front of their clothes closet, and there’s 20 pairs of, you know, 20 outfits there, say, it’s not that pleasant for the child to have to pick. If you throw three things on the bed and say, pick one, they’re pretty happy about that, because they get some choice, but it’s constrained. And, you know, people say they want to be free, but that’s just complete nonsense, because you run into paralysis of will with an infinite degree of freedom. You want a certain amount of freedom, but not that much. And you sort of want it when you want it. In my marriage, and in my relationship with my children, and in my clinical practice, you have to negotiate.
