Today in class we talked about what happens after the couple gets married. After they have been married its a time for them to "put up their white picket fence." Meaning they need to set boundries as to how much family involvement they both want. It is vital that the newly married couple seperates themselves enought from their parents that they are able to establish their own family. They can establish their own family by deciding the roles they will each play- house keeping, who provides the income etc. They should also set a presitence as to how they will handle conflict. When we started talking about conflict Brother Williams read a scripture from the Doctrine and Covenants on how and when we should confront someone about an issue that bothers us. In the scriptures we are told to use sharpness. Brother Williams explained that this means "with surgical percision." I found that to be very insightful! We shouldn't confront someone by attacking their character we need to be clear and specific about the issue that bothers us. I really enjoyed the discussion today because I felt like I learned alot about dealing with conflict and confrontation. I love how you can always turn to the scriptures for instruction dealing with any problem. And I just loved how Brother Williams picked apart each word to better our understanding of the verses.
