How to maintain a healthy American family during the recession and through financial struggles?

Girl Face asked:


Financial struggles can cause problems/conflicts within marriages and put stress on the relationships in the family. What are some ways American families can better cope with finances and maintain a healthy, successful family?
For example, I think families should rely less on credit cards because it will lead to more debt and stress on the family in the end, etc……..

    keep communication open and keep an eye on the budget, at this point in time buy only what you need to survive. keep the spending on pointless stuff down, if you do that you will notice a better increase in cash flow

    Financial struggles are less difficult to handle as a family if you are not aware what is going on.
    Try and gather information so you can both -
    * Remain one step ahead of the crowd,
    * Get information most will never ever find out about.
    * Be able to see market events as related and in longer term trends
    * Instead of reacting to every little twist and turn.
    * Stay up to date with the latest events around the world and see how they could affect you.

    This is why so many people are joining
    because family pressure is greater not understanding what is going on.
