Why do you think the Divorce Rate is so high now-a-days?

Question

Back in the day if you were to get a divorce you were shunned ... now today in 2007 when someone says they got a divorce the reply usually is 'Cmmon girl join the club!'

Answer 1

I think there are 4 reasons.....

1) the couple don't take the time to find out about what they expect in the marriage

2)they expect the marriage to work by itself

3)they got married too fast

4)having children too soon

Answer 2

Young people rush into marriage like it's a game. They don't prepare and work. They assume there is an "easy out" if it does not work out.

This is a selfish society. Everyone wants his or her desires first without much consideration of a partner's feelings.

If people could be more understanding, considerate, uplifting, encouraging, caring, loving, they would have a better chance for a lasting relationship.

Answer 3

I think most people have no clue what marriage really involves or the fact they are unwilling to adjust to married life..Divorce is just too easy an out as well..

Answer 4

Probably because alot of people get married at a very young age and think that they have found the one but they haven't.
