It seems to me that my W (possible the same as yours) doesn't believe in trying. Things are supposed to be good without trying. So reading anything is out. Talking about things in any depth is out. Pretty much anything other than natural telepathy and mind reading is "forced" and therefore bad. I'm surprised she's even seeing a MC with me.
The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.
