Divorce is one the key issue that strikes United States. It's growth i so enormous, that it's already considered normal and usual. Going back couple of hundred years ago, divorce was even unthink off, unlike now when everyone is getting a divorce. There are just so many people who get married in the early stage of their lives. I dony even know how to react to divorce. People just cant seem to find the right person for themselves, they marry others and then realize that it's not theirs.
Recently I hear of this one guy who was divorced seven times. The funny fact is, that he divorced the same woman. Can you just imagine it? What's the point of divorce after all. Why not just wait to get married later on in life? Well for some people waiting isnt an option while others believe that they are making a righ choice. The issue aof divorce will expand untill something will change it.

In your blog, you make it seem as if divorce is a bad thing. However, I think divorce is sometimes the best solution for couples who married at too young of an age, couples who can't bear each other and are always in a fight, and spouses who need to escape from an abusive partner.
Also, children tend to be an issue when ever divorce is discussed. There is pressure for the parents to stay together for the sake of the child. However, this is not always the best solution, as the child ends up growing up in a bitter, broken household at the expense of the parents' happiness.
Also, you mentioned "Going back a couple hundred of years ago, divorce was even unthink [unthought] of." The reason divorce was "unthink" of is because of women's role in a male dominated society. Women were subjugated to a "cult of domesticity" in which their purpose was to have and raise children, uphold the family's moral, and be the civilizing force of the family. Divorce became a tool for women to escape from their husbands and survive on their own. In that aspect, divorce is a good thing and a stride for the rights of women.
It is useless to address the issue of divorce, but perhaps focus more on the sanctity of marriage. Perhaps if more couples went to pre-marriage counseling they might have better chances for a happy ending.
Perhaps we should question the whole idea of marriage in the first place, as marriage does not exist in a state of nature and 50% of marriages are ending in divorce.
