This article seems basically saying: "On average, the wife will not care much about her husband, or their relationship - once they have kids. The best way to make her involved in the relationship, is making it about the kids". Bummer :-(
It feels like the husband is an "accessory" in this setup. An "optional" who’s there to take care of wife and kids, that could easily be discarded once the kids are gone ("many women initiate divorce when the kids leave the house").
And then people are shocked when the husband has an affair?!?
Honestly, the more I read Dr. Psych Mom’s articles about marriage, and the more it sounds like marriage is a bad deal for men. Unless having kids is their first priority.
Well, at least she’s honest about it.
