Do you know of anyone who decided to have a child, in part, because they thought it would fix or just improve the marriage? I've heard of couples doing this. Never mind that it's a rather selfish reason to have a child. Do these people really think it's going to fix anything? If your marriage had issues before you had kids, it's not like those issues suddenly go away once kids enter your life. At best, you might be able to use your kids to gloss over what was wrong in your relationship. I'm trying to remember who it was, but I read about some celeb recently who said their partner cheated, they took them back, then decided to have a more kids thinking it would strengthen the marriage. Of course it didn't and the couple divorced. But imagine being that kid. Your parents conceived you to fix their problems. Wow. Way to make a kid feel special.
Using your children is plain wrong. It's too bad more people don't try to build a comfortable home and family for their children and then have them.
