should marriage be made permanent that cannot be broken for whole life.?

Answer 1

I think there should be restrictions for divorce. I think the only reason why some people marry before they're completely sure is because divorce is always an option. I believe in certain siuations it should be okay like adultry, abuse, etc. But simply falling out of love with your spouse is not fair after you made vows to that person. I think it should be much harder to divorce in cases like that. Marriage counseling should be mandatory before divorcing for such reasons. People grow and change. It's a part of life and you should be aware of that fact before marrying. You should be willing to AT LEAST try to work things out for a certain period of time through counseling and such before being granted a divorce. I don't believe in divorce. If you are not sure you can stick by someone through thick and thin then don't get married. These people being married for only a few year and then divorcing is crazy.... a few years compared to what was supposed to last a lifetime is crazy. You should have to work a lot harder than that if you sign up to legally be bound with someone. It's not fair when the other spouses emotions are invovled and you just suddenly decide "I want out".
But that's just my opinion.... =)

Answer 2

Marriage is a contract. You cannot make somebody love you nor can you make somebody want to stay married. And if somebody wants out of a marriage why would anyone even consider "making" somebody stay in one and be miserable? Instead of making one person, the one wanting the divorce, miserable, you would then make the one wanting the divorce, the one possibly not wanting the divorce AND usually some kids, too, miserable. Why would anybody want to create and maintain that much misery?

Marriage SHOULD be entered into with the hopes that it will last a lifetime. I've always thought it should be much more difficult to GET married and then the divorce rate would be more likely to go down. For instance, men should have to be a minimum of 30 before they can marry, and women 25. They should also have to have been together for no less than three years and I believe five would be better. Also, pre-marriage counseling and courses (education) should be mandatory. And there should be a waiting period of five years before couples have children. After all, who gets hurt the worst by divorce?

Answer 3

No, because then there would be women (and a few men) in physically abusive marriages, who wouldn't be able to get away because marriage was a legally unbreakable agreement. Also, what if you marry someone and he turns out to be a cannibal or something, or a child molester? Would it be ethical for the government to force you to stay married to a potentially dangerous sicko? No, it would not. Or what if two people who really did love each other got married, but then 10 years later, the husband suddenly realizes he likes men and wants to be gay? Now he either has to live a lie for the rest of his life, or he has to endanger the physical and emotional well-being of his wife by engaging in homosexual affairs. It would have been so much easier for the couple to amicably divorce so he could pursue who he really is in a healthy way. This is why divorce is a good thing sometimes.

Answer 4

No, if is was made permanent there would be alot of miserable people in the world. Probably alot of deaths too. Marriage is a very sacrad thing (in my opinion) and people should only get married if they are 100% sure and give it all to make it work, but sometimes no matter how hard you try some things will never work......

Answer 5

Absolutely not. Marriage is a commitment between two people...it is up to them to strengthen the bond and make a marriage work. Imagine if you were in an abusive situation or married a serial cheater? I think that marriage counseling should be a requirement for all couples before getting married...you should never be forced into anything as we all have free will and we DECIDE how to make a marriage work. It doesn't just work for you...

Answer 6

No I don't think so, that would be infringing on peoples rights and the spousal murder rate may go up...some people just don't mesh together, unfortunately they jump into marriage unprepared for the reality and then jump back out. Maybe people should stop and take time to get to know each other first before getting married and try to work out problems before just using divorce as a fix all. It seems people get married too fast these days and don't take it seriously.

Answer 7

How would that benefit us anymore than having a 7 year limit on licenses work?

Marriage shouldn't be forced to last until eternity or only a few years. Each relationship is different.

So feel free to tell the woman being abused daily by her drunken husband that it can never be broken. And don't say that there would exception because once you make exceptions, there's no point.

Answer 8

I dont think women would stand for it. Man being physically stronger can dominate a woman at least physically and so men may not complain about it but women most certainly would. There are many ways for a man to escape from a bad marriage even without a divorce but a womans options are limited and hence she would certainly demand that there must be provision for divorce.

Answer 9

That is the way it was like from the beginning and marriage was instituted with that thought in mind . We should get into marriage with that thought in our hearts or we would try to move out of the marriage every difficulty that comes in the marriage.

Answer 10

The main idea or a marriage is to be with that person for the rest of your life. Unfortunately people change with the time and faith gets lost in some stage of the journey.
