Rather than focusing on their husbands and affectionately tolerating children underfoot, they adore their children and value men for the security they provide, but little else.

Oh kids keep people together all right, but only in the sense that they make it much more difficult and expensive for two incompatible people to separate. How often do we hear people say they're staying together "for the kids?" I think what they really mean is "We can't afford to get divorced." They can't afford to live independently, pay child support/alimony, etc., so they stay in an obviously failed, miserable marriage and say that things aren't working out, but they're gonna stick it out so their kids can grow up with two parents under the guise of living in a functional family. They think this makes them such fucking heroes to stay with spouses they loathe and either don't think or don't care that their constant arguing, cheating, lying and mental/verbal/sometimes physical abuse won't have any effect on the kids. Then they resent the kids for "making" them stay together and take their shitty plan out on the only innocent party involved.
People will breed before they even figure out if they're compatible with one another. I think one out of every two pregnancies is unplanned these days, maybe even more. People fuck around recklessly, get pregnant or impregnate someone, women don't make the responsible choice (abortion), give birth regardless of life circumstances or relationship stability and then wonder why their lives suck and they're always poor.
Babies will put a tremendous strain on any relationship, probably more than any other hardship/obstacle. It can shatter a good, stable, loving marriage, so you can imagine what it will do to one that is anything less than that. If the only common interest two people could have is the child they make together, then they are almost certainly not compatible with one another to begin with. Every single interest doesn't have to be mutual, but if two people have fucking nothing at all in common, I seriously doubt they're going to be able to handle dealing with one another, let alone being forced to interact with one another for two decades because of a kid.
As far as the moron in the article, if there was no passion between them, why did they stay together for over a decade? Considering they were both in film school, I assume they just co-habited because neither one could afford to live independently with the fast food jobs they probably got with their overpriced film degrees and they could tolerate being around one another, most likely with conflicting schedules that made them not have to see each other much.Quote

This is pretty much the story of every modern Moo. Once they have a uterine parasite from their husbands, those husbands get shoved right to the bottom of the priority list to make room for the baybee and its needs, which all occupy their own separate priorities on the list. The women aren't interested in being affectionate or intimate with their partners, but also won't leave them for someone who does interest them because they don't want to lose the financial support of their husbands (or the on-call sperm bank when the first kid stops being cute in two years and Moo wants another baby). This is why so many breeder couples act more like roommates than anything, and then on New Years or one of the partners' birthdays, there might be a bout of drunken bareback sex and that's how the second Happy AccidentTM gets made.
And I wish this cow would shut the hell up about her "perfect daughter" already. Someone who yammers on endlessly about how perfect their kid is probably has a horribly-behaved, borderline-retarded brat.

I once read a (probably very small) "study " in some mag like Psychology Today that said small infants somehow sense when their parents are having sex,even from another room, and get restive and begin to cry! The article wondered if the loaves had a sixth sense and were trying to prevent competition from new offspring being created. ha!
