If you enter into marriage with the attitude of total commitment, then Divorce is Not An Option, then it will last, because you are committed to make it work. Your statistics mean nothing to those of us who have this attitude.

Wedding vows don?t mean a damned thing. In the USA, 50% of marriages end in divorce within the first 5 years. Because the couple were stupid enough to invite the government into their relationship, they have to pay lawyers and court fees for ?permission? to split up. We have ?no fault? divorce now, the courts NEVER deny a couple permission to divorce anymore, so I see no reason to involve them. In the past, you could only divorce for a good reason, and those reasons were codified in the law. Domestic violence, adultery, alcohol or drug addiction, and abandonment were pretty much the only valid reasons judges would grant a divorce. Not anymore; one of the people just has to be ?bored? or wants someone else, etc. -- Chris Crawford Fine Art Photography Fort Wayne, Indiana 260-437-8990 http://www.chriscrawfordphoto.com My portfolio http://www.facebook.com/pages/Christopher-Crawford/48229272798 Become a fan on Facebook On 7/2/15, 1:00 PM, "LUG on behalf of Ted Grant" <lug-bounces+chris=chriscrawfordphoto.com at leica-users.org on behalf of tedgrant at shaw.ca> wrote: >Well then, all that shows is how easy it is to get knocked-up and not have >the responsibilities of rearing the child or children!
