[quote=Anonymous]We got married at 21. We tried for years, but my wife couldn't seem to get pregnant. It was seven years before our daughter was born. I didn't think anything of how long we were together. I figured that, if anything, being alone for so long would be a plus. We got to truly get to know one another, we traveled, and we got the "young people stuff" out of the way so that we could focus on being parents. My wife felt the same way until the baby was born. She felt neglected, she felt jealous of me splitting attention between the two of them. She felt trapped. We divorced when my daughter was three. She later told me that after the baby was born, she realized all of the things she wouldn't be able to do. She also realized that she didn't want kids because of all the stress and the change to her life. Since the divorce, she seems much happier. We have joint custody on paper, but she's with me the majority of the time. [/quote]
