Marriages Under Attack

I know that I am posted at Moody Air Force Base to focus on relational challenges. But airmen are able to come to me "off the record" for any distressors in their lives. However, I must tell you that married military members (Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, and National Guard) are being challenged at the hearts of their relationships. Constant absences, poor money management, too little income for growing families, shifting marital roles, dual working parents; ALL of these often bombard military families at the same time. One of the negative results is the end of these families. Which does not heal the suffering, only increases it. SOLVING the distress does decrease the stress while running from it does not. Even though (y)our marriages and families may not be bombarded like military families, there is something here to learn. Solving distresses resolves them without destroying the relationships. Try it.
