[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly don't understand why people with earning potential get married any more. You can have kids without marriage and you don't get tied to someone under terrible contract terms.[/quote]

Why would you have a kid with someone who will not marry, support you and make a life long commitment?  [/quote]

I am not PP but I agree...Do you realize that there are men who will not support you? They will marry you and expect you to work full time and be the primary parent...which means you have two jobs and he has one. It is like they want a 1950s housewife plus a high earner and no, they will make no sacrifices for the woman. The woman mommy tracks her career but still has to work out of the home AND be the primary parent. I think marriage is so much worse in this scenario than never marrying. [/quote]

Right, which is why some women quit their career jobs and focus on the parenting job.  Men don't do diddly at home.[/quote]

Well, a lot women can’t quit while their husband does nothing at home and they are basically working two jobs (which is like being taken advantage of). Not a good deal at all. [/quote]
