You're doing them a grave disservice, then. If you're a woman who managed to build up savings beforehand, or was trusting enough to be the main earner while your husband was going through school, you can end up the worse off financially for making a poor marriage decision. And don't forget to mention all the women who accept diminished lifetime earnings because they were the primary caregivers for the couple's children, and then find themselves struggling to support those kids and themselves if their husbands leave, no matter what child support was awarded on paper. Even if the father does come through on the court-ordered payments, she's never going to get that decade of her career back, or the retirement savings she missed out on.
