comparing choices, alternatives and the consequences of these money
decisions.

Chartable Money Behavior
- As long as you are teaching your children life’s
lessons, it's important to teach them that they can do more with their
money than just spend it on themselves. Encourage them to be more
compassionate and caring by sharing their money with worthy causes.

adult and that can be a much costlier lesson.

and keep an open mind when looking for solutions rather than work off of

situation.

The Perfect Partner

then you need to work at being the perfect marriage partner. It's easy
to criticize your spouse for not being perfect while we ignore our own
imperfections.

Space
- When your spouse expresses serious concerns about
your relationship, take a step back to give them space, and then work on
something you can do to strengthen you both emotionally and physically.
