Inhaltsangabe

An increasing number of people are turning to the Internet for pornography and related activities such as illicit chat rooms, cybersex, solicitation of prostitutes, or worse, predatory behavior towards minors. In most cases, secrecy enables and perpetuates these problems. These behaviors have devastating effects on marriages. Unfortunately, most spouses do not know how to appropriately confront their partner who may be indulging in these behaviors.

Ironically, many spouse’s who participate in these unhealthy activities desire to abandon their behavior and free themselves from a double life, but do not know how to disclose their secrets to their partner. This is a difficult task because they fear the consequences from taking this risk. Many are afraid the disclosure will dissolve the marriage. Although this is true for some, a large majority of spouses are willing to support their companions and work through the problems together.

Whether you want to confront or disclose secret behaviors related to pornography problems, this book contains valuable information gathered from clinical experience, research, and the testimonies of clients struggling to overcome these issues.
