Healthy Marriage

Here are a couple of suggestions for a healthy marriage:

• Put your marriage first
• Don’t take your partner for granted
• Support one another including listening to work concerns
• Find quality childcare
• Set priorities
• Make healthy choices
• Brainstorm solutions (if clean house is a priority, find help and put it in the budget)
• Be flexible.  Develop skills to juggle time schedules and activities
• Get organized
• Delegate
• Strive for balance
• Learn toleration
• Make time for fun

 
Make time commitment of at least 15 minutes a day with your partner.
 
Go on a date a minimum of once a month.
 
Except life will be chaotic, everything won’t get done.  One of you may have to say “no” to something or being somewhere.
 
Share equally in household duties including errands and child care/parenting.
