“Marriage is a duet or duel” Emile Augier
Is it not so my friend?
Our experience tells us that initially it is a duet and over time it gets into duel mode.
Very rarely it’s duel initially and over time maturity brings out the best in the form of a duet.
The problem with the couple is one tries to dominate the other and the couple rarely has a perfect
understanding throughout.
We come across couples fighting in front of the children.
Don’t you agree with me?
Thank you for your visit.
Take care, my friend.
Namaste 🙏🙏🙏

It depends on the maturity of the people involved. A duet is always better than a duel but surprisingly, some people enjoy sparring 😍

Sparring is Ok.
But not talking to each other for days together?
Thank you Sadje.

Marriage is supposed to be a union, where two merge into one. An argument between them is almost like arguing with yourself, which we all do occasionally. It should not turn into a duel, especially in front of children.

Well said, Dolly.
Sadly, when the couple 👫 is young (20-40 yr. range) they forget the presence of young children…and argue like mad with all shouting, throwing things and frightening the kids hurting the kid’s tender brains.
And many times either the father or the mother even hurt the child in that anger. (physically or mentally) as if the kid is responsible for their fight.
What can the child do, except curse himself or herself for being in the wrong place at the wrong time?

This is tragic. Parents need parenting classes, and children of such parents need therapy.

You’re never going to always agree, but how you disagree is so important. Good photo and thoughts to go with it for the challenge.

Thank you Janet.
And it’s better to agree to disagree but in a friendly manner without any hard feelings and forgetting things within in the next second.
And thank you for encouraging words.
