Does marriage counceling work?

If the two people are willing then it can work. Even if one goes then they are better taught to deal with the problems just beginning by becoming a single parent. The child's interests should be the first thing on eveyones minds since the kid really has the most at stake.

Yes it works if she will put the outcome of the counselling to practice.The problem is they might go but will not carry out what the counsellor tells them. I believe in talking things over. Dialogue is all they need. If people will learn to say sorry and mean it, there would be no problems in relationshipn.

i feel that marriage counseling will only work if the two people are willing to attend the sessions and work together to try and make things better. They also need to listen to the counselor and the advice that is given to them in order to turn their marriage around. It is really up to the two people to make the counseling work for them and have a wonderful marriage again.

Under only one condition. Both people have to be willing and open minded to the process. That is rarely the case, unfortunately. One person has usually already made up their mind at this point. I feel for the child as well. If they can't go through counseling, then the best thing for them is to be civil for their child's sake.

Yes, sometimes it will work to arrange and clear marriage trouble.
