The typical issues that come up for married couples with children include; how to deal with in-laws, how to raise the kids. Money is a big one. How to spend money. How much money to save. How much money to spend on the kids. Sex, of course. How much sex to have and when to have it and where to have it. One of my favorite quotes is by Leo Tolstoy. He says, "What counts in making a happy marriage is not how compatible two people are, but how they deal with the incompatibilities in their marriage." If you can learn how to have really difficult discussion that come up, then you will be able to get through anything.
