Something there is way too much of in
America. Statistics say approximately 50% of
American marriages
end in divorce. This is a very sad statistic if true. Divorce has numerous affects that can lead too emotional or financial insecurity for the couple, depression, and children and the family lose the foundation. It causes an awful lot of pain for the children involved. Often the children rarely get to see/visit one of the
parents. Divorce can also create insecurity and a lack of trust for the children of divorced
parents in their future relationships. Divorce affects much more than just the immediate party involved. It has affected much of American society, because the breakdown of the home leads to the breakdown of society with no foundation.
Marriage and the family is the foundation of society and divorce breaks it down to produce an unstable society. This is a FACT. I'm
tired of the politically correct nitwits claiming divorce is an improvement to the quality of your life for those who want their freedom again. This is bullcrap. If you want your freedom, then
don't get married. Divorce has affects on society and always will. Period.
Most religions despise divorce and with good reason. In some rare instances, divorce can be an improvement. For example,
the Bible and Christianity teach that divorce is acceptable (but not necessarily the first option) in marriages that involve infidelity, abandonment and abuse, BUT only as a last resort if things cannot be worked out. Who’s
marriage doesn’t have problems and challenges? But divorce should NEVER be an option because any
marriage can be rejuvenated.
Don’t like your spouse anymore? Then do something to get closer to them: take a weekend trip together, have a date night once a month, ALWAYS apologize to each other after a disagreement, talk your disagreements out, focus on the good things about your spouse, etc. But divorce should NEVER be considered.
