Yes | No“this book is wonderful i think, even tho i am not married yet, d advice seems doable and str8 4ward. my only problems with the book are, 1st, u can tell by the first two chapters the size of his ego and maybe, just maybe with his "skills" he can accurately predict the likely hood of a marriage ending up in divorce, but i believe that "where there is life, there is hope."
secondly, his advice to families to tear or remove themselves from their parents as they are a bad influence was not properly explained. some people have nosy parents, some people have meddeling parents but mostly people have wonderful parents aho have been married for yrs and yrs and whose valuable advice could help smooth out rough times in a marriage and of course spouses should support each other but he neglected to mention that some wives can be most unreasonable and for the most part people should be wary of parterners or spouses who choose to cause rifts in families.”
“Quite a good book - a bit sad when I recognise myself in some of the habits that need to be avoided! Hopefully I'll be a bit more careful in future...”
