8.2 years

 The average length of a marriage in the US is 8.2 years. Whilst the national average marriage length is just over eight years, couples in New York typically have the longest-lasting unions. The typical marriage in the Empire State lasts for 12.2 years, which is significantly higher than the national average.

Children/offspring  created by said unions are everlasting.

my children's, children are the most gift precious I have ever received in my life time.  my children mean more to me than all the money in the world.

celebrate this Christmas by thanking God for your Mom and Dad who without you would not have been born.  Fathers, thank God for your progeny, your heirs to the kingdom...

if you are no longer speaking.  reach out and reconcile.  

Merry Christmas, all

 

your time on Earth is limited, make the most of it.

What % of these marriages end in death?

[little2add]

Good question

i lost my wife to cancer over 10 years ago, after 30 years of blissful marriage and three children. 

My Mom passed on after 57 blissful years with my Dad and nine children.

A little more hopeful way to look at it is that 60% are married only one time.
