Response to Antony’s Note
Part 1:
Money problems remain one of the leading contributors to divorce in the modern society. When the two marriage partners have different styles of managing money, the problem can ruin their marriage. A diligent financial planner is better off unmarried than staying married to a person who is reckless with their money.
Part 2:
Divorce has a significant impact on the lives of children both in the short-term and in the long term. It is psychologically troubling and very difficult for children to deal with the loss of love between their parents or witness their parents break up their marriage commitments. Divorce creates new family circumstances for children and that can change their lives significantly.
Part 3:
Divorces can trigger various kinds of uncomfortable, frightening and unsettling emotions, feelings and thoughts such as depression, grief, guilt, despair, anxiety, devastation and anger. Even though such emotions are painful, people undergoing divorce can find healthy and good ways of coping with them.
Response to Critus’ Note
Part 1:
Each individual have their own faults and limitations. It is therefore advisable for a person to treat their partner based on their future potential because that is what matters the most. For example, one should consider factors such as parenthood and lifelong companionship that is associated with a marriage life.
Part 2:
While hugging, kissing, and saying "I love you" to a spouse every day is essential for a happy marriage, many couples do not do these things as often as they should. Kissing, hugging or saying “I love you” to your partner everyday reassures him or her of your love and commitment.
Part 3:
A strong or healthy marriage is founded on good communication. It means talking to your spouse in a respectable when during conflict situations. A spouse can find it annoying if his or her partner is argumentative. Through talking a spouse gets to communicate his or her thoughts, feelings and opinions in a manner that does not annoy their partner or worsen the conflict situation.
