A hard agree. Like Frede had pointed out, Ayla wants to do everything with the kids which is again great that she's so invested but at the same time it neglects her and Frede's relationship. I mean yes they will stay together and eventually the twins will grow and move out but what about the two till then? Plus she's a working mom. Hope she hires a tutor or a nanny so they can have cute little dates and relax.
I know a lot of people here wouldn't understand and his explanation behind his sulking was childish but it does raise a good point. They can spend time as parents but they also need time as a couple. If one role suffers because of the other the imbalance can be detrimental to the relationship. Like they discussed they need to set aside some time to grow more as a couple so that they can grow stronger as parents as well. I've watched relationship fall apart after kids grow up and their need to be parents is gone, what's left behind is a forgotten relationship and now they're too old or too set in their ways to fix it. The woman feels more comfortable in her role as a mother and the man is just lost, wishing for someone else's company. It's better they give each more time along with parenting. Children grow up in a healthier environment that way.
