Having kids is something that is natural and both people in a relationship have some of an idea about. You should feel comfortable with the person before starting a family. You should sit down and discuss the responsibilities of having kids. A baby is a joy and can effect a couple in a positive or negative way. If the children are rough on the marriage it depends on the couple. Yes kids are loud, and it seems they never sit still, and they sometimes want to make you rip your hair out they are a joy. Having children is a tea effort, and both people should understand the effort before they start the family.

Having had children helps and then there is good old Gravity and after marriage one is older then before marriage.
No.
She and her husband decided long ago that they did not want children. Having children is NOT a requirement of marriage or long term relationships.
No. Marriage itself does not seem to encourage or prevent people from having children as it once did. Also, it is simply not true that gay men father more children in states where same-sex marriage is not legal.
Bring up the answer casually in the conversation about children. If he tries to avoid it, he may not like the idea of marriage. Keep bringing marriage up in a conversation about children until he cracks, and talk about marriage face-to-face.
Reasure him that it will work out. Example: If you want children and he is having second thoughts to the point he wants to leave, reason with him, like no children after marriage
That is not a correct statement. Women are able to have children after marriage. At one time, you ONLY had children after marriage.
Regardless of what causes the breakdown of a marriage, both parents have equal rights to their children. One parent having an affair doesn't necessarily put their children in danger, nor does it make them a bad parent. Making a bad choice that negatively affects the marriage doesn't change the fact that you are both responsible for your children and have rights to them.
No marriage and no children. That never happened.
For me the answer is yes it does. It gives children a fighting chance at having a well rounded life. Having both parents in a child's life gives him/her the opportunity to get life lessons from both the mother and father.
