A Resource For Young Married Couples

The site is intended to function as a virtual small group for married couples, featuring a group blog, a forum and regular featured articles about the early years of marriage, career, finances, culture, and calling. A key topic on the site is preparing for parenting. Gen X and Gen Y couples are reporting a sharper drop in marital satisfaction when they become parents. Young Married Life will offer candid thoughts on the joys and challenges of starting a family with the hope of providing couples a smoother transition.

"We want to offer a supportive community to couples who might feel a little lost in their transition into marriage," said Steve Watters, director of Marriage and Parenting Preparation for Focus on the Family. "We especially want to help them realize that they aren't the only people who have fights about in-laws or how to load the dishwasher the right way."
