It's not a merit badge, or a young women's value.
But without boundaries, our marriages will not flourish and thrive like we want them to.
So, today we're going to give you an introduction into the concept of boundaries. What are they? How do they work? Why are they important? How do we set them? And how do we enforce them?

The Two Types of Marital Conflict
Did you know there are actually two types of conflict in marriage?
Some conflict, like what to eat for dinner tonight, is resolvable conflict.
The rest of our conflicts - 69% to be exact - are unresolvable conflicts, like what to do if you're an early riser, and I'm a night owl. Or if you're fastidious and I'm cluttery.
If you try to solve an unsolvable problem, you're just going to get more upset and frustrated. (Each type of problem requires its own skillset.)
So, today we're going to talk about those two types of conflict, and how to handle them differently.
