Excellent info on the "history" of marriage and relationships in America. A wake-up call for those who think bouncing from one relationship to the next is "ok" with the children...it is NOT. Seems we used to be a country where children came first--now it's all about ME (sad). Many of our "relationships" are informed by the media, so one has to wonder if we are replaying the affairs we watch on TV and the fast paced dating-to-bed routines. WAKE up America and let's put children first! Thank you Dr. Cherlin for bringing this to our attention. An interesting study. Excellent info on the “history” of marriage and relationships in America.
