I'm always unamused at the number of slash stories that become All About Their Kids - because we all know that if you're in love, then your whole life must be about having and raising kids. Sheesh.
I've actually read a nice slashy romance story where they had kids, but the story was about *them* and their lives, and the kids were minor characters. Very nice change of pace.
I will say that it is nice to be married so that someone *else* does the dishes and laundry half the time. ;-) Major benefit!
