commitment

How many people actually kept a long relationship with somebody while they were in middle school or highschool? Very few people are able to keep a relationship for more than a few weeks. Why is it that younger people do not seem to have as much commitment as the older people seem to have. I think that over the years the word commitment has lost its meaning to a lot of people. divorce rates have gone up like crazy. How many people in their 60's or up do you hear about being divorced. The new generation does not seem to like the commitment. I think that this has a huge affect on our society. What would be some of the differences in the world today if there were more commitments that were held true in the world? I have never been able to figure out why there is such a lack of commitment. so if you have come up with any reasons as to why please fill me in. Another question that i had is, if you have a hard time with commitment in highschool will that actually hold true when you get to college or possible even later in your life when you are married? And is it easier for those that could keep a commitment during highschool to keep one when they are older? Can that be linked in anyway? Either way people should still be aware that it starts at a young age of not keeping commitments and it is definatly not a good thing to learn.
