I ran across this article about marriage counseling, and the key reasons it may not be helping. It is very insightful, and helpful for couples in need. New research shows a rise in divorce for baby boomers, especially 2nd marriages (150% divorce rate). We all need to be informed.
Key reasons are discussed, and solutions recommended for couples who have not had positive results from their marriage counseling experiences. Findings show that baby boomers now have the highest divorce rate out of all the age groups across the board at 150% . This is really troubling to me as a divorced mother who has not taken that second chance on love.....yet!!!
I do believe in love and second chances. However, it's important to pay close attention to these numbers, and the main reasons second marriages are failing at such a high rate.
Giving marriage counseling a fair chance, going on a regular basis, learning the tools needed to improve your marriage, and being willing to do the homework with patience and commitment together are key.
The author of this article points out the responsibility and accountability factors required by both spouses, 100% of the time. He reinforced the fact that this is key to their success in rebuilding, strengthening and making their marriage strong again....or even stronger than it was to begin with. I believe in this. Do you?
