tamron123 @tamron123 (276) • United States 18 Aug 10

Divorce in the Philippines

archon309 @archon309 (404) • Philippines 18 Aug 10

A group is pushing for the legality of divorce here in the country? Is it really needed? How do you think it would affect the families, specially the children if divorce is legalized here in the country?

marlena18042 Hello archon309! This is why I enjoy this site as much as I do, because I am always learning something new! I was never aware of that law in the Philippines. I myself, do not believe in divorce. I think that people nowadays just do not take marriage seriously....

marlena18042 Oh boy. Well, personally, I don't think there is any reason to bring this up. However, if your partner would then, I suppose honesty would be the best policy! Usually, lies come out one way or the other anyway and I think honesty is one of the if not the most...

Should you go for style or funcitonin a home?

denverlovesgarages @denverlovesgarages (1) 4 Jan 10

Obviously in the perfect world you'd want to go for style and function at the same time, but in most cases this doesn't seem to be possible. So in your opinion, is it more important to have a functional home or a pretty one?

marlena18042 Well, there are alot of things that I look for when looking for a new place. The style and the lay out of the place is always a plus but it has to be "fit" for my family. That is way more important.
