I never ended up finishing the game from what I remember, although I came close. I was playing with my ex as well lol

I don’t really remember him learning anything but honestly? I think the wife is worse. They’re both awful people in different regards but the wife is just so fucking cold. The dad is a dope. Stay at home dad that clearly has ADHD that he can’t manage and isn’t really in the best position to be a good parent but is an excellent dad, if that makes sense. He takes care of his child and spends absurd amounts of time with her but the lessons that he should be teaching her are often just left on the wayside. He just wants to have fun with her and be a good dad, not a good parent. He will go out of his way to set things up for his wife to try and be kind to her. The wife on the other hand works all the time and doesn’t have much time for the family. That would be one thing but the time she does have she just refuses to use to engage with said family. She ignores the husband and the kid and just runs off to be on her own. The dad keeps mentioning this throughout the game, that she doesn’t spend any time with them. She will just go into her shed and start tinkering on things, actively ignoring her family.

From what I could tell, neither one learned a single fucking thing during the (majority) portion of the game I played. The self help book keeps trying to teach them lessons and both of them ignore it but the husband is often more receptive. He’ll question what’s being said and try to bring it up with his wife who just refuses to engage.

They both suck but the dad tries and spends time with his kid. The mom seems to just hate her husband and her kid.
