It plays a role and so does hard work. Does anyone expect to get married and then divorced with 2 kids? I say because we have a 50% divorce rate yet it is a financial situation which can devestate both parties. And while you have to work at a marriage, honestly for some people I know, they just grew apart.

They got married too young and when they were 35 (15 years later) suddenly the people they were when they got married had changed. You are lucky if it all works out and you grew together, but what if you have grown so different?

In that sense it can play a slight role. Or the luck of meeting someone at 20 versus getting married at 35 and spending say mucho $$$ on trying to get pregnant or adopt because you weren't fortunate to meet someone early enough to have kids at a reasonable age instead of 40.
