Remarriage can lead to many complications especially when there are children involved. It will be very hard for the person who was divorced to try and even date people at all because they have to balance work, their children and family. I think that many people struggle with this as well because they don't always think about what would be best for their children and instead think about what is what they want. I think that although it is a hard decision to make I think that if we want to make a marriage work with someone we can make it work if we have the desire to do such. I think that with the help of the Lord we are able to receive specific promptings of what we can do to to strengthen those relationships. I am grateful for my own parents who have been such an example to me in my life on marriage and working together in unity.

Divorce and Remarriage
I think something that we fail to realize is that not all divorces are due to the facts that people don't want to try and make it work anymore. I think it is also important to recognize those instances where people have gotten a divorce due to abuse of any form. I can't imagine the courage that it would take to get a divorce under those sort of circumstances. I think that it would be very challenging to do that.

Parenting
Something that I have been thinking about a lot this past week after our discussions was about why it is a good thing that there are young parents verses being raised by your grandparents. With younger parents they have more energy first of all which is a good thing for both the parents and the children. Although they may not have as many life experiences as an adult this is a great opportunity for them to learn and strengthen their own marriage. There a lot of benefits for the parents because they are able to learn as they go and become better parents with time, patience, and practice.
Thinking to my own parents they were both very young to be parents. My mother was 20 almost 21 when she had her first child and my dad was about 23. I can't even imagine being that young as a parent! But everyday I am grateful that they were young parents because they were able to be very involved in my life, which has made a huge difference in my life.
