Slate’s Dear Prudence advises a wife to distance herself from a toxic in-law and a dismissive husband

A reader asked Slate’s Dear Prudence column if she was wrong for responding to a decade of hidden insults from her mother-in-law in a family group chat. The columnist advised that the reader’s reaction was justified, noting that the husband’s dismissal of the issue suggests he is also affected by the family’s toxic culture. The advice recommends temporary distance from both the in-laws and the husband to allow for healing and future communication.

Walking Together Might Boost Couples’ Communication and Conflict Skills

A national study of 1,693 newly married U.S. couples found that exercising—whether together or separately—is associated with better communication, fewer serious arguments, and improved conflict resolution compared with couples who don’t exercise; shared exercise showed a somewhat stronger link, but the difference wasn’t statistically significant, so causality can’t be concluded. Walking was a common shared activity, and results held after accounting for demographics. Limitations include cross-sectional data and self-reported activity, meaning longer-term studies are needed. Therapists and marriage educators could consider suggesting shared physical activity as a practical, low-cost way to support relationship skills.

Calm in the Heat: Six Quick Somatic Tools to Regulate During Conflicts

When a conflict triggers the nervous system, rational thinking often shuts down. The article outlines six quick, body-first strategies to shift from reactivity to regulation: take a small step back to create distance; perform a horse flutter breath to release facial tension and interrupt escalation; shake out the body to discharge stress energy; emit a long, audible sigh to activate the parasympathetic system; use a butterfly hug with bilateral tapping to calm the amygdala; and look around (orienting) to reestablish safety. The goal is to create space between stimulus and response so you can choose a thoughtful, not reflexive, reply.
