A new survey found that arguing once a week can be the secret to strong, happy couples -- as long as the arguing isn't abusive.

According to the Daily Mail, the study of married couples found that 44 percent of pairs believe that fighting 'helps keep the lines of communication open.' It also found that fighting in front of children can be a good thing -- provided the irritation is dealt with respectfully and couples are able to show kids that they have moved on quickly and positively.

Do you agree with this study?  My husband and I get into little arguments sometimes, and sometimes it's in front of the kids.  I tell them, it's just like when they argue with each other.  You can't live with someone and expect to get along all the time!
