What benefits are associated with marriage?
Health Education Health 100 Version 3 / Marriage
"The text associates marriage with better physical and emotional health, greater wealth and income, more stable intimate relationships, safer circumstances for children, longer life expectancy, and legal and insurance benefits. Married people may also receive more social and emotional support and experience greater financial security. These benefits describe population patterns and do not guarantee that every marriage will be healthy or successful."
