In the essay, “Numbers Drop for the Married-with-Children”,
by Blaine Harden it shows how being married with children is becoming more rare
these days. From personal experience and being part of a divorced family I totally
agree with Harden’s point. The divorce rates are getting higher and being
married with children, as Harden says, is “becoming a luxury item.” It is very
expensive to have a family and in this essay it explains how people that get
married are usually of the same social status. Wealthy marry wealthy and poor
marry poor, which results in the poor being very unhappy and usually filing for
divorce. Or in my situation, two people that don’t have the same personalities
end up marrying and find out about ten years later that they are not meant to
be. Divorce is becoming the new norm in for families.
