Too often, even those couples seeking professional help do not receive the tools they need. As divorce became more socially accepted in the 1970s and 1980s, many therapists actual assist in marriage suicide by viewing divorce as a life style option or as a pathway to personal growth. Though well meaning, too often they advise clients to get a divorce stating without full knowledge of the enormous consequences of divorce. At best, they take a marriage neutral attitude of what ever makes you happy, without knowledge of the current research on happiness. Studies on divorce and happiness demonstrate that many divorced persons are actually less happy five years after the divorce. Couples you worked through their problems and avoided divorce tend to have higher levels of happiness after five years. So why dont couples work harder to make their marriages work? Because they dont have the tools.
