YOUR MARRIAGE MAKES MARRIAGE AVAILABLE TO THE NEXT GENERATION
Each of us has a marriage “imprint” based upon the marriage of our parents. Can you imagine entire communities without any marriage modeling at all? For instance, in the Sandtown-Winchester neighborhood of Baltimore in which the killing of Freddie Gray and subsequent riots took place, only 13% of children experience a two-parent home. Children have a harder time understanding what marriage is, how it functions, or how to behave in marriage, since they see permanent relationships so rarely. Such a weak marriage culture also makes it harder for young adults to find a dating pool of
qualified partners to choose from. Their acquaintances have most likely not seen or experienced the benefits of a functional marriage either.Share
