Marriage Counseling-Prevent Therapist Assisted Marriage Suicide - part 1

by Barbara Bartlein, The People Pro

People want to get married and stay married. In fact, according to a study by Family Service of America, more than 70% of adult Americans believe that "marriage is a lifelong commitment." Interestingly, even 81% of divorced and separated Americans still believe marriage should be for life. Yet, over half of marriages end in divorce.
Too often, even those couples seeking professional help do not receive the tools they need. As divorce became more socially accepted in the 1970's and 1980's, many therapists actual assist in marriage suicide by viewing divorce as a life style option or as a pathway to personal growth. Though well meaning, too often they advise clients to get a divorce stating without full knowledge of the enormous consequences of divorce. At best, they take a "marriage neutral" attitude of "what ever makes you happy," without knowledge of the current research on happiness.

Studies on divorce and happiness demonstrate that many divorced persons are actually less happy five years after the divorce. Couples you worked through their problems and avoided divorce tend to have higher levels of happiness after five years.

Should I go to marriage counseling? Get a Divorce after 12 years? How about my kids!?
He lied again! Not cheating, but gambling. I feel like it's really ruining my life. He lost about k about 2 years ago and promised he would never do it again. I was just devestated. (I threatened to walk out if he ever did it again). Now I have found out that he has again lost K spreadout within the past 8 months! We've been married for 12 years with 3 kids. Had our first child when I was just 20. I feel I have worked so hard to try to make a living for our family and have been very successful at it. He never worries about $$, which makes me worry twice as much. He doesn't even make half as much as I do and it doesn't bother him. I worry about the kids..they love their Dad. But the $$ thing and his lack of help with the kids is sucking all the energy out of me. I also think it is making me very short tempered with the kids. I love him, but can't trust him. I'm so confused. I feel like a sucker!
