Meals

Astrid (Meaghan Rath) and James (Aaron Abrams) reminiscence about married life without kids. They could do whatever they want.

Now they face the challenges of raising two young kids. It means they are stymied by parenthood.

Astrid wants to get back to work. Somehow she might not be mentally ready to go back.

While James has pulled a favour from a friend to take Astrid out to a swanky restaurant. Reservations are a must and he can barely afford the meal

The first episode of Children Ruin Everything was underwhelming. I felt it rushed with too many characters but it might just be that the initial set up with Astrid and James was not promising enough.
