When Your Children Marry
Author: Deborah M. Merrill
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers
ISBN: 144221094X
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
Marriage is an important transition in the life of any adult who marries. But often when a son or daughter gets married, their relationships with their natal families changes. It is often said that a 'daughter is a daughter all of her life, but a son is a son 'til he takes him a wife.' This book examines how marriage changes relationships between adult children and their parents and how this differs for sons versus daughters. Merrill considers the process by which men 'get pulled into' their wives' families and the ways in which men are sometimes more connected to their wives' families following marriage than to their own families. But what is it about a relationship with a son that changes when he marries? And why do daughters tend to stay closer? Why do mothers experience greater difficulty in negotiating relationships with married sons than with married daughters? Why do daughters tend to stay closer and maintain stronger ties to their natal families than sons do? This book answers these questions and offers advice for mothers on how to maintain strong ties with their children when they marry, negotiate relationships that may be fraught with new challenges, and accept changes when they happen. Sharing firsthand accounts from mothers, sons, and daughters, the author sheds new light on this neglected topic.

“Who’s that sleeping in my bed?” Nothing kills a marriage more than when a husband or wife wakes up one morning and begins to think, I don’t really know the other person in my bed anymore, and I’m not sure I want to!

Using a blend of candid insights—including some very straight talk on sexual issues—humor, and stories drawn from years of experience “in the trenches,” the Reissers offer commonsense approaches to prevention, repair, and rehabilitation of marriage rifts. With this book you can recapture the intimacy and caring feelings you had when you first fell in love, and learn how to embrace change—with all the good it can bring.
