I recall a survey like that. Out of 1,100 couples who were tracked, about 50% ended up divorced. Among those who attended church together, the divorce rate was two (2) percent. Among those who attended church together and prayed together at home, only one couple divorced.
See my post #22. There's a reason for bringing religion into it.
Thank you for my first good laugh of the day.
Now you know why guys discuss their sex lives with other guys.
I guess they can't discuss it with their wives.
I have a number of friends who waited until their mid-late thirties to have children, or even early forties -- and have watched quite a few marriages fall apart. I wonder sometimes if it's the loss of control??
We, on the other hand, were 22 and 23 when our twins were born (19 and 20 when we married) -- the way I figure it, we're not planning on more children, at ages 41 and 42 they'll be graduating high school, and we'll have quite a life left.
There is a lot to look forward to, and plenty of time to enjoy the now.
Make sense?
