[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH tells me all the time he is very thankful he landed on his feet after his divorce, although it took a few years to get back to good, and more to get back to great. I think at year 1 he felt ok, year 5 was still tough, and now year 10+ he is thriving.

I know part of that was meeting me, having more kids, and switching jobs, but it was also because it takes time to build a new relationship, find a new community, etc, which get fractured as part of the divorce. [/quote]

More kids? Yikes.  That’s what most people would not want —back to the baby, toddler, preschool stuff all over again.  One thing my spouse and I agree on is that our kids will never have anymore siblings...whether we stay together or not.[/quote]

Agree. It's not fair to the kids, they don't want steps, and half siblings. I wish people would stop doing that, have kids with 1 partner. It's messing up all the kids who can't get enough attention and care from their bios. My friends DH made sure to get a vasectomy to ensure his kids were protected after divorce. [/quote]

Inheritance is another issue once they start adding more step siblings and wives.  Second, third wives that could get $ over their kids from first marriage.

Too many complications.  The worst is too many households during the holidays.  Yuck[/quote]

Why second marriages have a higher divorce rate. Not to mention many of these men won't be able to retire because they are supporting too many kids. Second divorces and bad choices have destroyed their finances. I'm surprised most men don't get vasectomies after divorce so they don't end up with the surprise kid. I saw with friends the holidays were a nightmare. The grandparents wanted to be with their bios not johnny the step. In most cases the so called "blended" aka dysfunctional hasn't worked. The statistics tells us, and it's been well observed. [/quote]
