subject: Cohabitation Before Marriage - Get Answers During Online Seminar [print this page] Have Questions About Cohabitation Before Marriage? Get Answers from The Experts at Upcoming Telewebinar
Living together out of wedlock, once considered "shacking up" or "living in sin," has lost its stigma as cohabitation has become mainstream.
More than two-thirds of married couples in the USA now say they lived together before marriage. And while previously studies indicated that cohabitation before marriage increased the chances for divorce, a new report has turned these earlier studies on their head. The report by the National Center for Health Statistics, based on a national survey of more than 13,000 people, found that Couples who live together before
marriage and those who don't both have about the same chances of a successful union.
Mike McManus, co-founder of Marriage Savers, a "ministry" that aims to reduce the divorce rate, calls the findings worrisome. "I think it's going to lull some people into thinking there's no problem with living together," says McManus, co-author of Living Together: Myths, Risks & Answers. "It appears to say you can cohabit and it doesn't matter, but it doesn't look at all the couples who begin cohabiting and how many of them are able to make a marriage last. It doesn't say how many marriages broke up" before 10 years.
McManus is one of four relationship and cohabitation experts participating in a national telewebinar on June 24th, 2010 titled "Cohabitation? Confusion to Clarity!" To attend learn more, visit http://www.shackingupseminar.com
