44 Reasons You Should Join the Happy Wives Club

Have you noticed we’re living in a reality television world that seems hell-bent on selling the same story: wives are miserable, husbands cheat, marriages usually end in divorce, and happily ever after only exists in fairy tales?

Well, that’s why we’re here.  While the world remains fixated on all that can possibly go wrong in marriage, we remain squarely focused on all that can go right.  

This club shines a bright light on one important (but often overlooked) truth: Happily ever after isn’t a fairy tale…it’s a choice.  

What began in 2010 as a simple way to shine a light on the positive side of marriage has turned into a vibrant community of close to 200,000 women wanting to surround themselves with others who are like-minded.

We form friendships and encourage each other daily.  If you’re not a part of our online community, make sure to join us here.

If the above forty didn’t convince you to join the club, maybe nothing will. Except, perhaps, the following quotes that remind us of the absolute importance marriages staying together (and the happier, the better):

41. “The effects of the decline of marriage on society are striking. The failure of parents to marry and stay married leads to more crime, poverty, mental health problems, welfare dependency, failed schools, blighted neighborhoods, bloated prisons, and higher rates of single parenting and divorce in the next generation. Nearly every major social problem has deep roots in the failure of adults to form and sustain healthy marriages.” -Bill Doherty, Director of Marriage and Family Therapy at University of Minnesota
42. “You need only do three things in this country to avoid poverty – finish high school,
    marry before having a child, and marry after the age of 20. Only 8 percent of the families
    who do this are poor; 79 percent of those who fail to do this are poor.” -William Galston, former White House Administration
43. “The collapse of marriage is the principal cause of child poverty in the United States. . . Overall, some 80% of long-term child poverty in the United States is found among children from broken or never-formed families.” -Robert Rector, US Poverty Issues Expert
44. “The United States Administration for Children and Families (ACF) spends $46 billion per year operating 65 different social programs. If one goes down the list of these programs… the need for each is either created or exacerbated by the breakup of families and marriages.” -Wade Horn, Psychologist and former US Assistant Secretary for Children and Families

So there’s my pitch!  My goal when I set out on this journey was to find at least one million women around the world, proud to declare their love for their husbands.  We’re one-fifth of the way there and if you’ll share the club’s mission with your friends and invite them to join the million member challenge, we’ll definitely get there.

Until tomorrow…make it a great day!
