Title: If everyone read this book, nobody would have children.
Review: This book is heavy on the "horror stories" but offers few solutions. The authors seem to delight in telling you how horrible your marriage will become. You have to slog through pages and pages of negative, bitter, depressing anecdotes from parents to get to the one paragraph at the end that says, "be appreciative, be affectionate, communicate, have sex." See, I just saved you the time of reading the book.It would've been better if they had included more positive, helpful advice and solutions to marriage problems. Instead, they make all women seem like controlling, nagging harpies, and paint men as insensitive deadbeats who would rather do anything than take care of their children. You're left wondering if you should even have children, if this is the nightmare your life is going to be! I wasn't expecting (or wanting) them to sugarcoat it, but would a little encouragement and optimism wouldn't have hurt.
