Today we'll take a look at stress relative to time.  When we can't control time how do we manage energy and stress? Folks are often in deployment cycles waiting (too much time) - while on a day-to-day basis the single parent at home is "out of time." Research from the corporate world invites people to consider - if you can't manage time, manage your energy and stress. Time is finite - energy can be expanded and stress can be reduced. How can we expand energy - how can we help children do the same?  A related and interesting topic is while everyone knows that couples argue about money, kids and sex, a less visible but stressful topic for couples is "Why Couples Disagree About Time."
