Abstract

We are grateful for the thought‐provoking commentary and critique of our study of marriage and the transition to motherhood (Dew & Wilcox, 2011) provided by Milkie (2011); Clements, Martin, Cassil, and Soliman (2011); and Perry‐Jenkins and Claxton (2011). Indeed, we hope that their commentary will spur further research and reflection on this important topic.
