The re-emergence of date night

HAVE A GREAT DATE

Julia Stone , co-author of "Babyproofing Your Marriage" and mother of two, offers these date-night pointers:

Don't feel guilty. "Your adult relationship is the linchpin of the family," she says. "To model a loving relationship and show kids that adults can have fun together and enjoy each other is one of the best things you can do for your children."

Don't let money be a hindrance. "If you're inspired to plan a surprise trip to Paris, then rock on," she says, "but it still counts as date night if you just jet to the local pizza parlor."

Don't talk shop. "Try to get through the entire meal without talking about the kids, the house or money," Stone says. Her suggested topics? "Is global warming a myth or a problem our kids have to deal with? What do you want to do before you die? What do you want your spouse to do for you before you die?"
