"What are my chances for a successful marriage? How do I know that my marriage will be successful and happy?" This question is asked re peatedly of us at the American Institute of Family Relations in Los Angeles. Again and again we hear this query from the clients who come to us preparing for marriage. Dr. Paul Popenoe maintain that the following ten background factors are impor tant in determining marital hap piness: 1. Your parents should have been happily married. It this is true, then you have a good chance of also finding marital happiness. 2. If you have had a happy childhood, this is a point in your favor. 3. You should not have had any serious conflicts with your moth er or your father. 4. In your home life the dis cipline should have been firm but not harsh. 5. You should have been close to your mother. 6. You should also have been close friends with your father. 7. You should not have had any serious conflicts with your father. 8. Your chances of marital happiness are greater if your parents were frank in their dis cussion of sex with you. 9. You should have been active in several church and com munity organizations. 10. Your own attitudes to wards sex must be free from disgust or aversion. If you can answer yes to each of the above statements, then you may consider yourself a better than average risk for mar riage. The chances are that your marriage, too, will be happy. Studies irrdicate that your mar riage depends, to a large extent, upon what you bring into the marriage with you from your childhood. If your parents were happy, you tend to be happy. If you were not close to your par ents, you tend not to be close to your marital partner or your children. If you have been friends with your family and are still friends with them, you may feel that you can be a more sympathetic and friendly partner with your spouse. If your childhood has been largely happy without too many obstacles to overcome, it means that you will have a calmer un derstanding of yourself, of other people, and of life in general, because your past life influences your present behavior and your future relationships with other people. If, however, your par ents were not happily married, this does not mean that you will fail in your marriage. It merely means that you must work hard er to overcome your past ex periences and to be ready for a happy future. If you find that there are many things mentioned above which have left you puzzled or which you are unable to answer satisfactorily, then you may wish to consult a marriage counselor before you marry. Marriage counseling is not restricted to aiding those already married, but is also devoted to helping those who are planning marriage. Here at the American Institute of Family Relations we counsel people who have been long mar ried or who are planning mar riage. We have a marriage read iness course which we offer for all those who wish to prepare themselves for happiness after marriage.
