An article in USA Today on the epidemic of addiction in American families quotes Kenneth Leonard, senior scientist at the Research Institute on Addictions, who said when one spouse drinks heavily and the other doesn't, chances of divorce are high, but when both are heavy drinkers, researchers have found they both tend to be fairly satisfied with their marriage, because, he said, "It's a shared activity, and it's time spent together."
