via @Quartz, "How American parenting is killing the American marriage"

by ParentCo. March 04, 2015

"Sometime between when we were children and when we had children of our own, parenthood became a religion in America.

Nothing in life is allowed to be more important than our children, and we must never speak a disloyal word about our relationships with our offspring. Children always come first.
