Would You Pay A Premarital Coach? by Ronkks(f): 5:16pm On May 10, 2020
Some say Premarital coaching saved them from taking wrong decisions, they believe it can save people from some arguments, time, and also give a healthy marriage foundation.

Would you be willing to pay for Premarital coaching, so that you and your partner can have firsthand knowledge about things you need to know before you say I do?

A lot of churches have mandatory premarital counseling for the couples.

Some couples also go as far as attending paid seminars or buying a lot of books.

So premarital coaching is not a new phenomenon. It might just not be structured or called 'premarital coaching.'

Its a great idea.

Churches already do this.

You can read your bible too, there are so many powerful principles in there to have a wonderful marriage.It has practically everything you need.

You can also buy good books about marriage.

Churches do the much they can, however some people may not be transparent to the church counsellors compared to a Premarital coach which sometimes defeats the purpose of the counselling. Their reason for not being transparent could be fear of criticism and judgement but that won't happen with a paid coach. Premarital coaching also isn't just for Christians.... it accepts any other religion or beliefs.

Yes and I wish it will be made mandatory before couples are joined in marriage. So many are getting married without the fuggest idea of what they are getting into...Biko it will help our society.

100% agree. the problem is this
1. Religious places are usually the only place to offer this and they are not trained well for it. Just because someone has been counseling for 5 years doesn't mean they are good at it. they really try their best but honestly their main job is preaching
2. Niggas lie a lot! both men and women may be in the state of forming so that they look like an attractive spouse. they wont tell the truth so that may thwart these things

Even despite this, it is essential to do. it is here that a busy lagos babe will find out that her husband to be intends for her to be a housewife. it is here that a guy will find out that his wife to be intends to born a football team and wants him to pay for everything single handedly

It takes at least 3-4 months to teach and prepare for a 2 hour end of semester exam. Don't think you can master the tricks and lessons for marriage in 2 weeks.

What you failed to learn from your parents or family in over 20 years cannot be learned in a day or two weeks seminar. Do not waste your time. You will forget all you were told a week before your wedding.

The best premarital coach is your family. Whatever your parents, guardians, or family teach you, good or bad, will always supercede whatever any paid coach businessman tells you.

If you’re considering this as a business venture, then I’d say “go for it”. It’s an area of untapped potential that has likelihood of yielding high dividends. Try it. I wish you Goodluck .

Of course.
People really need to start taking lectures before getting married.
I hate reading sad marriage tales online.

An individual who decides to start calling themselves a Premarital Coach, whatever that means. NO.

An individual with the right credentials/educational background (e.g. a certified marriage counselor). YES.

absolutely true, more people are beginning to know the importance of a premarital coach. I coach engaged couples as this will help them thrive in their marriage especially when it comes to finances and expectation management.

Well, with the way the world is going, people would no longer have families to teach them how to be good spouses anymore.

How does a girl learn the qualities of a good husband and father when she never saw one with her mother?

Or how would a boy know his duties in the home when no-one showed him?

I have realized that 'wokeness' would ruin everything and get people to pay for what they ought to have had for free.

Make we carry go, we would soon have pre-parent coaching. grin

This is true that your family and guardian can be your coach, however remember that the bride or groom will come in with different home training and this is also one of the major causes of divorce. Upbringing is a big deal, all a coach does is to help you both see these differences and find a way to align.

Premarital is a niche and it simply means before the wedding or marriage. Choose which is best for you but remember that premarital is cheaper than divorce and also it is possible to live happily ever after if only you seek knowledge
