If you’re a young couple between the ages of 18-22 this is a critical time to educate yourself on marriage. Some might say, that’s way too young to think about marriage. Wrong. That’s young to get married but not too young to start talking about it, learning about it and whether or not marriage is for you. Why do we not TEACH on marriage? We teach about academia, finances and babies but never marriage.

You never know when your child will get married and additionally, your child should be taught about the most important interpersonal relationship they’ll ever have. If we’d do that we might see a change in the divorce rate. That’s another lesson for another day.
