This is the "marriage bible". So much has destroyed the family in recent years, and she repairs each problem in "Proper Care..."
The feminist movement created a ton of good, I won't deny that, but it also created a ton of problems that weaken marriage and male-female relationships.
One example of such is that in recent years, women are seen as SUPER women, being more intelligent, efficient, through, and powerful than ever before. That may be wonderful in some ways, but men, possibly guiltily, have accepted abuse and neglect because in the past, they have been the aggressors. Instead of being equal, which was the original plan, men are treated like a spoiled child, needing to be watched over by their wife. OR that they are animals, with need only for food, sex or beer. Neither is correct. The feminist movement has not created equal partnership, but dominion, and that was not the purpose.
Marriage, Dr. Laura explains, is a partnership, a team, and each team member should be working toward helping each other and having the same goals. When either member is belittling efforts of the other, it doesn't help the team. But, she explains, lately, it has been the WOMEN, not the men, who are in need of this message.
She brings the view of your man back into perspective, and with a whole new attitude. She reminds you of the fairy tale, and reminds you of what is needed to continue it. The fairy tale story of happily ever after, of your man slaying dragons all day to make sure that you can stay home and nurture your family.
This book has changed everything I do, and how I see everything. It is not a good read or a quick read, it's meant to change your marriage.
I encourage EVERY woman to read it!!!!!!!!!! You'll live your happily ever after!!!
