Book Review: Don't Divorce by Diane Medved


This book was given to us in consideration of a review.

This book is not a quick read, nor is it an easy read.  It is a book written by a Ph.D. and it feels like it is written like a textbook in some places. 
 However, that might just be exactly what is necessary to combat all the literature out there that is based upon opinion and made-up statistics. 
As you know, statistically speaking, marriages don’t last.  You have a higher chance of divorcing before you die than you do of staying married the rest of your life, or that of your spouse. Is that really true?
Don’t Divorce offers studies that prove divorce is misrepresented in the media, that it isn’t as common as one may think.
In fact, Don’t Divorce shows that much of what is presented in the media as fact is just plain wrong.  This book not only dispels the myths, it gives the name of the studies that disprove them.
Don’t Divorce offers readers information to help them stay together.  It reminds readers of how the divorce industry thrives on people’s misery and how much potential cost there is, in money and the lives of not only the couple involved, but also their children and other family members.  
We hope that no one reading this is ever faced with the possibility of divorce.  But if there is a possibility, both members of the couple should read Don’t Divorce. 
Don’t Divorce is well-written, and although a slow read, should be read by anyone who has a potential divorce in their future, whether it be their own, or that of someone they love.
We don’t like the subject matter, few would, but we think it is an important book for anyone who has divorce enter their life or the life of a family member or friend.

  1. 赤ちゃんを出産後2年から3年位で夫婦仲が悪化してしまう事を産後クライシスと呼び
    最悪の場合、別れてしまう事があります。
    産後クライシスは2012年にNHKの番組で「夫婦を壊す?!産後クライシス」というテーマで
    放送され反響を呼びました。
    産後クライシスはその番組でNHKが付けた造語です。
    赤ちゃんを産んでから、出産してから、出産後夫婦仲が悪くなる事はだいぶ以前から
    知られていました。
    要因は様々あるようですが、出産してから起こるホルモンバランスの乱れや
    育児などのストレスにあると言われていますが、まだはっきりした事は分かっていません。
    でも、最悪な離別だけは回避したいものです。
    お金に余裕があれば離別してもまだ救いはありますが、
    金銭的に余裕がなければ今後の生活が大変です。
    産後クライシスは永遠に続くわけではありません。
    家事や育児が忙しいうちに産後クライシスは自然に消滅していきますので、
    気長にがんばりましょう。
