Lael confides to her best friend, "i'm not getting along with my husband; perhaps having a child will bring us closer." based on the text research, what should this friend say?

The friend must say that this is a bad idea and that a child can make the couple's relationship worse.

Explanation:

The birth of a baby is almost always associated with increased stress levels. There are several studies that demonstrate it. More than half of couples are most dissatisfied with their relationship in the first months after the birth of a child. Most point to this period as a time when there is much more discussion, irritability, and disconnection.

Children can be a source of great joy, but for couples who are comfortable and happy with each other. Couples who are experiencing relationship problems, as shown in the question above, should solve their problems before thinking about having a child, otherwise they will feel more unhappy and will not be able to provide a good life for the baby, which will become a burden and not a blessing.
