In her new book “The Light We Carry,” the former First Lady delves into her own marriage and what she sees happening with the younger generation.

"Marriage is never 50/50," she said."You kind of wonder how that idea got out there."

"If I look over my marriage, if I were to judge it in year 5 or year 10, there was never 50/50," she said."Somebody was always giving way more." "There were times when I felt I was 70% in and he was doing 30% and I had to compromise, as he has," she said."Because of the choices that I made and the terms of how I wanted our family to look, I had to take my foot off of my career gas pedal, never putting on the break, but slowing up a bit."
