This was a thought I had early when I was required to take a "Towards Marriage" class in high school that was taught by a priest.
They did have one of the male guidance counselors come in to talk with us a couple times. He was not clergy and was married and had kids. Mostly he talked about which spouse had what responsibilities in the marriage (I bet you can guess who stayed home barefoot and pregnant) and touched on spending money wisely and raising any kids in the church.
Either way it was a BS class but was required for graduation. One of the few classes that had nothing to do with education to lead toward college while I was there.
