Produktbeschreibung

Half of all North American marriages dont work and other forms of partnership dont do any better. These relationships are sometimes described as trial or practice unions, but practice generally improves results, so why do sixty-eight percent of second and then seventy-three percent of third marriages fail? It doesnt have to be like that. What one might have done or still can do to make or save a relationship are detailed in sixty-eight partnership practices. These practices come from understanding the influences of sex, destiny, heredity, personality, geography, culture, children, money, aging, addiction, lifestyle, illness, religion, law, gender, infidelity, energy and sexual orientation. The book also details where to find a great partner, the usefulness of marriage today, the power of consciousness and communication, a way to judge when love is authentic and the costs and consequences of divorce. Whether entering a new relationship, working on one, considering leaving one, wondering why one didnt work, pondering why one did work, or just wanting to help a friend or relative, this practical and insightful look at relationships will help you see why things are as they are. Along with those insights, you will discover what might be done to change any condition; specific action derived from new knowledge about the best practices in successful partnerships.

Autorenporträt

Prior to his retirement, Ronald A. LaJeunesse had more than thirty years experience in the education, health and criminal justice systems. Educated in psychiatric nursing, counseling psychology, education and business administration at the Universities of Saskatchewan, Alberta and Calgary, the author received appointments as the CEO of the Canadian Mental Health Association in Alberta and of the Mental Health Branch and the Mental Health Board of the Government of Alberta. He also taught in the Saskatchewan Department of Health and at Mount Royal College. He served as the elected Chairman of a large school Board, as a Police Commissioner overseeing the work of a major urban police service and he chaired the Board of a Spiritual Centre. He did individual and family counseling in community clinics, owned and managed a franchised restaurant and a human services research and consulting company. The recipient of numerous professional and public service awards including a Governor Generals medal for community service, he has presented at international conferences and written three previous books, one receiving Alberta's top literary award. Outside of his addiction to work, Ron experienced a life threatening and debilitating injury while playing hockey. He helped raise four sons and a child who was a government ward and astoundingly somehow sustained an almost fifty-year relationship with his wife Wendy. What he learned through his professional career, through his injury, through community involvements, through his family and friends and largely from his partner Wendy, has provided the fodder for this book.
