I've never been divorced, but I've seen a lot of situations in which it was the best option. Mostly when there was abuse involved, to be honest.
Especially if there are children involved, I think if you are fighting every day with your spouse, even if the children don't see or hear it, they will know their parents are unhappy. So I think divorce is better, because the kids can just deal with it and move on, instead of staying in a home where people are miserable for their entire childhoods.
The other main thing I can see is when you're in a marriage where you are unhappy, and your partner is unhappy, and you have tried to fix things but can't... it keeps you from reaching your full potential as a human being. Staying in relationships that are unhappy and not helping you to learn and grow is just harmful to yourself.
I know a lot of people don't accept divorce because of religion, but my religion doesn't really have anything against divorce, so I don't have to deal with that.

*nods* I think some people do give up too easily, and there are some relationships worth saving. I don't think divorce should be the first thing people think when they get in an argument or whatever, which I've noticed is the case for some couples these days. However, I just wanted to point out some of the reasons that I thought divorce should be an option at least.

In some cases a divorce is needed (typically in abusive situations or situations where a spouse really is useless). However, I do not agree with a growing aspect of divorce where women just get bored of their spouses despite how much their husbands do for them. One can easily clean out their husband stateside and end up with 50-50 (or 80-20) if kids are involved. Basically, the wife can actually lie in court and get her friends, family and even the kids to lie to really screwball the husband, and trust me he'll get screwballed.

Divorce is the option of lazy and very immature people that have the me me me mentality. And that is the very mentality that is causing our nation to crumble into the mess she has become. And it all starts right here in the home (marriage) if a couple can't work out their marriage and make it work and provide a safe, secure home for one another and their children, they aren't capable of doing anything else positive for society.
Yes, divorce is wrong and those that do it are going to wish they hadn't when they stand before God on Judgement day and have only to answer to Him!!

yeah i have same view as yours when it comes to divorce.. marriage is sacred. i mean i still believe that there would still be other options besides divorce. it will take long time to fix the relationship but if they only do their best, i think God will do the rest...
thanks for sharing..

I have friends whose parents got divorces and believe me it was definitely for the better. They are all so happy now and free from the fighting every night.
