An excellent resource is "How To Argue So Your Spouse Will Listen: 6 Principles for Turning Arguments into Conversations." Dr. Sharon Morris May says, "It’s not how similar you are or even your level of conflict that determines your marital success but how you deal with your emotions, vulnerabilities, and dragons when you argue."

In this book, Dr. Morris helps you understand: why we argue, how we argue, and how to unravel our arguments. She helps you to identify what’s really going on in your brain and body when you argue, the cycles you get stuck in, the emotions fueling the cycles, and then helps you to argue in more considerate and connecting ways.

Learning how to argue so your spouse will listen can change your marriage and change your life!

"A hundred years from now, it will not matter what was in my bank-account, the sort of house I lived in, or the make of the car I drove. But the world may be different, because I was important in the life of a child."-- Unknown
