When his wife became pregnant with their fourth child, Greg panicked, but a focus on the family counselor put everything into perspective.

He said, the first thing you need to realize that kids are a blessing or all of the

blessings that their gifts from God and the second thing you said was kid value

relationships not stuff. I'm Jim Daly let's give more families hope. Any gift you send will be doubled at

Focus on the Family.com slash gift. Well, when was the last time you and your spouse had a conversation about physical intimacy?

The more honest you are, the more frequent you are in communicating with your mate, the better chances that you're going to have a fulfilling sex life.

I'm John Fuller along with Dr. Greg Smalley and his wife Aaron who lead the focus marriage team and Greg what

do the stats say about ongoing conversations about sexuality and and couple

satisfaction? Yeah really the research shows that maybe a third of married couples talk about sex once per month.

So just think about that and...

This is not a matter of how often they're having intimate relations

It's just a matter of how often they talk exactly and then that number goes down the younger the couple is.

So it shows that our younger couples

are really hardly talking about sex at all.

I wonder what that means.

Well, we might learn a little bit here from shanty Feldhahn and Dr Michael

Seizma. They did a research project about couples and physical intimacy and here they are

with Focus President Jim Daly.

Shanti, welcome back.

It's so good to see you.

Thanks, it's always good to be with you guys.

Yeah, please be sure to say hi to Jeff, your husband.
