Hi,

Posting an article link.

It's talking about Our Society in general does not have "Saving Marriage" in priority.

***EDIT***

It argues that formal education isn't oriented towards it, and it's mainly about money.People learn about "marriage" and it's importance in the crisis mode and it should change.

Any comments welcome.

Brave Dancer !

bravedancer,

Welcome to the MB community. Would you mind introducing yourself and telling us your story? I see you've been edited several times by the moderators, and you only have 8 posts. It makes me wonder what your intention is.

Hi Prisca,

I was MB member, went through this program and this forum was my support. It was back in 2008-2009.

I am lucky to have survived the crisis, and now when I look back, I have everything positive about this forum.

So I rejoined here last month, and my intention is to give back and help, if I can, based on my experience.

Thanks for msg.
I didn't noticed I have been edited.

Thanks,
Brave Dancer

Everybody who posts regularly here will agree that contemporary societies do not support marriage as they used to.

To have a ceremony is often treated as a lifestyle choice (and a silly, narcissistic, expensive one at that), and laws have evolved to bring marriage closer to living together.

Dr Harley defends traditional marriage, and gives compelling reasons why it is essential for individuals, children and society. Have you read his work on this?

No, because it is not an article BY Dr. Harley which reinforces the whole MB program and philosophy.

It would just get edited out and deleted again anyways.
