The Relationship Road Trip

This is it, drivers, the final episode of Season 2 of The Relationship Road Trip. We're home! Or we're there! Wherever we are, we're ending our Arc on resilience with some thoughts on how to raise resilient kids (which I guess are cars that go for 250k miles, which really twists our metaphors to new levels).
