One week to save your marriage
Well, you have to suspend disbelief a bit, but TLC's "One Week To Save Your Marriage" turned out to be surprisingly compelling. Educational, even.
The premise is that cameras are placed throughout a couple's home, so that a counselor can watch their interactions during the waking hours. She can then react to events as they arise.
This couple was painfully sad to watch, because they were so normal. It was terrible to see their little son caught in the crossfire. We were glad to have a happy result, though, and we hope that they continue with counseling long after the TV cameras are gone. We wish them all the best.
We strongly believe that couples need to head off problems while there is still goodwill and while memories of falling in love are fresh. It is so much harder to overcome the built up hurt and resentment once things have gone off the rails. The couple in tonight's show had lived a cold war for the last two years. Hats off to them for taking the big risk of counseling.
Especially on national TV!
Happy Couples, Happy Planet!
