Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Unhappy couples may be unhappy each in their own way--but they're all fighting about the same things: money, sex, and kids. These three topics often cause conflict that can erode even the strongest marriages. In this prescriptive, practical guide, popular author and therapist Dr. Tina B. Tessina shows couples how to deal with their differences in these critical areas, and resolve them before they take their toll on their relationship. They learn the proper etiquette for marital debate, as well as creative approaches to solving the problems that confront them in their life together. Given today's current climate--where many people are reacting to high divorce rates and the so-called age of the "serial marriage" by turning to such extreme remedies as covenant marriage--Money, Sex, and Kids helps couples avoid divorce court by addressing the divisive issues most likely to tear their unions asunder.
