SongsOfTheEnchantedHeart Personally I think that divorce is all together worthless. Yes there may be some cases where it is valid and necessary but otherwise if we didn't have divorce so many families might still be together. I think just the fact that we have divorce gives people the idea that they still have an escape from what their in. Almost as if they could find another girl or guy. If people knew they couldn't get a divorce then obviously they would choose their spouse much more carefully. And some people get in fights and then they don't try to fix it. they just let the wound stay open and raw. I think marriage is something to be honored not just something you hold on your finger. People don't respect it enough. *sigh* Alright but at the same time without divorce people would be stuck with abusive husbands (who don't show it until they start feeling the stresses of marriage) and so on and so forth. You'd have a lot more relationships that are forced to stay together and just make stuff worse... I do however agree the divorce rate is WAY to high... I think maybe mandatory relationship counseling should be a part of divorce.

Well if we didn't have divorce then people would have to work things out. And people would really truly and deeply search for the one that is perfect for them. Not just anyone. (not that they all do that but some take a guy that they like and not love) I think yes that if people have abusive husbands they should be allowed to separate but that's partially the girls fault as well because even though they may not be abusive when they first meet, you can tell when someone is going to become that way. When you meet someone it is usually evident even if in a smaller way.

I think they every option should be explored before considering it. EX. marriage councilers unless the it turns abusive then no holding back. If people talked about what they want beforehand then there would be less problems with people meshing badly.

I think that marriage is a beautiful thing and is much as sometimes it hurts divorce sometimes has to happen. Also arranged marriages are not for me unless I was born to that custom but I still believe in it.

They have mail order brides from different countries. They get married to someone in the U.S and then divorce them. If we didn't have divorce we wouldn't have these people that got lucky and sold themselves to get into the U.S.

So instead of taking care of the problem of the scumbag peddlers who are selling these brides, or the people Buying them, you're going to make the bride (who very well may have been forced into it) suffer?

I'm not going to make the bride suffer. They sign up. No one is forced to do it. They don't divorce them because their happy. The only reason they marry in the first place is so they can get a green card and be a U.S. citizen. They divorce them so they can move on and get a job and start a new life in the U.S.

Some of them ARE forced into it. Study up on Asian mail order brides... There are some of them forced into it by their family. It's sick to see that crap still going on.... wait... are we arguing about immigration in the marriage thread... I can't EVER stay on topic.. *sigh* Sorry... *pouts*

LOL well it has a bit to do with marriage. I agree that divorce is ok if its under those circumstances but other wise if the two people marry because they love each other then they should work out their problems and change for one another because they LOVE each other. If they didn't love each other enough to change then that is just pathetic and weak willed and they shouldn't have gotten married in the first place.

Agreed, And I think that there should be a mandatory 30 day couples counseling or something before a divorce is granted.

I come from a broken home. It's hell. Just think about that while you read my answer.
No 2 people will never be perfect, and everyone fights. But what about the kids? They never asked for parents who fought, the never asked for broken homes, they didn't even get to choose their families. If 2 people get married, and they have kids, and they decide they can't handle it anymore and want to go their seprate ways, well good for them, but what about their children? The'll hurt their kids no matter if they stay and fight or if they go and fight. But it's not natural for 2 people to wed, vow to be together, have kids, and then rip it all apart.
There are cases where it's better and sometimes even safer for people to break up. But, there are plenty of times where the parents just forget what love is. It's not an emotion. It's a commitment. If they give up on their love for their spouses, how can they keep their love for their kids?
And doesn't every kid deserve to be loved by their own parents?
So yeah. I'm against divorce. Seperation, mabe. Divorce... no.
