[quote=Anonymous]I also disagree that premarital counseling really achieves anything. It's easy for people to say they will deal with things a certain way and make promises and reach an understanding and have expectations. But all of that goes out the window when people hit really life challenges. That's when they default to what they learned as a kid, to how they learned to deal with conflict, disappointment, and stress as a child. And that is going to be primarily how one or both of their parents handled those things. One exception is if the person has gone through years of individual counseling specifically with the awareness that his childhood exposed him to dysfunctional patterns of behavior and negative ways of dealing with conflict and he WANTS to proactively alter those habits in himself. But that's individual counseling.[/quote]
