NASIR

According to the research, married couples' assessment of the quality of their marriage starts to sink rapidly just after the "I do" and continues downward through the first four years. The quality of marriage plateaus after that first dip and then declines again during years eight, nine and 10--the "seven-year itch" part. Couples reported that the presence of children is, not surprisingly, a considerable stress on a marriage; the research states that having children at home prevented married couples from maintaining "positive illusions about their relationships." (TIME Sept.27, 1999)
