I know this has been brought up before but I totally forget.
I know out there somewhere is a stat about this.
I was just curious. I know it is high.
Does anyone know? We are not getting a divorce, NOWHERE NEAR that but I can see how HOM change a marriage drastically.

When we found out we were having triplets my EVIL SM called to tell me she had found some article that said the divorce rate for HOM parents is 75%. I told her where to shove that article so I have no idea if its even true.If you go by average statistics of 50% of marriages fail, if that were that case wouldnt at least 1/2 of everyone on this board be divorced and that doesnt seem to be the case.

I have seen more marriages break up that have singletons. There has only been 1 divorce in 10 years in my MOMs group. I always tell my husband jokingly that we better find a way to stick together because we are stuck together due to having all these kids

My DH says we're stuck with each other until he can save enough money to move to Mexico.

HAHAHA!!! We joke that same way. DH says b/c I don't work I am his dependant and stuck here until the kids are old enough for me to work and earn my own way out. Nice, huh?

I have heard the divorce rate for HOMs is around 70% also.

I know my DH will never divorce me, b/c I told him that he will get full custody of all of the kids if he does... lol !

ahhhh, lol, thats what I should tell my dh!
I always have told him we could never afford to divorce because we have 2 many kids, but for now on I will just say he gets custody of all 5 of them, then I will add that they love the cat so much that he has to take the cat also, lol!

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! That is a REALLY good one! I'll use it next time the topic comes up... LOL
