Tiger Woods & Healthy Marriages

For the past week, the hottest topic on the internet and on television has been the saga of Tiger Woods.  He has traveled the road from a world-renown golfer and beloved by most everyone, to a vilified adulterer, scourged by anyone with a blog or webcam.  We have been bombarded by the media with 24/7 coverage of his house, his car, and his voicemails.

However, this is not just another blog about Tiger.  Here at NWA Healthy Marriages, we are more concerned with an alarming trend in our society.  Namely, that in the first sign of marital trouble, we immediately look towards divorce.  Take a look at the headline in this story about Tiger Woods:

Tiger Woods’ Wife Could Receive $300M in Divorce Settlement

We are not saying that his wife would be wrong in seeking divorce, nor that it would be right — we are just concerned about how divorce is considered a ho-hum reality of life and that the dollar signs are more important than the bond of marriage.

Should we flee our marriage at the first sign of trouble? (Let’s not be naive. The case of Tiger Woods and his “transgressions” may not be classified as the first sign of trouble.)  Or should we fight to make it better?  Here at NWA Healthy Marriages, we would encourage you to fight for your marriage, even in the face of “transgressions” and other problems.  Though the divorce may payoff in a large amount of dollars, it also may cost you in your quality of life.

We would love to hear what you think about this idea, so leave us a comment!
