You call those methods? Don’t be daft.
There is only the one year mandatory delay built into Louisiana law when children are involved.
But the attorney files to finalize the divorce and get a court date at the end of the delay. And. bingo. Divorce is done.
Now child custody, and property settlement may take more time.
The divorce, nope.
**I’d go to the shelter and get her a cat.**
Simple. I’d bring home a dog that doesn’t like cats.
You may be right that many women believe they will be financially better off after divorce—but the numbers do not lie—they have a false belief.
There are too many pieces of their “plan” that can go catastrophically wrong.
And how many women initiate divorce because he couldn’t keep his pants zipped?
bkmk
Ergo, denying such things, to UNWED MOTHERS, would hardly lead to “healthy,happy families”,now would it?

Of course it would. When single welfare mamas learn they can no longer depend on Uncle Sam for hundreds of dollars in freebies each month, they will keep their legs closed.
Anything the state does to reduce welfare to single parent families will only grow healthy marriages and prosperous intact families.
Heard.
Thank you.
"The family is a small nation, and the more we have of these tiny nations functioning properly and refusing to break apart, the more we as a large nation are able to resist tyranny, government overreach, and other breaches of our freedom."
I don’t doubt the 70% statistic.
It’s the WHY that’s got the guys all twisted up.
The thing that’s odd about the article’s title, is the female author blames both spouses if you read the text. I think the title was designed to get clicks.
There is no shortage of women who are bad wives, nor men who are bad husbands.
We can bicker about the percentage …while society collapses and children suffer as straights blame the freaks for cultural implosion. Beams and splinters.
Or, we guys can man up and acknowledge our culpability.
#1 reason women file for divorce: "you don't make me happy anymore."
Free clue ladies: If you go into a marriage not happy with yourself and expect your husband to "make you happy" all the time, you're going to be sorely disappointed.
We men can't "make" you happy, we can only add to your happiness. That means you have to be happy already.
"Happy already" means happy with yourself, your life choices, your relationships, etc.. Dragging your low self esteem issues, poor life choices and baggage from failed relationships into a marriage expecting hubby to make everything perfect and "make you happy" is a recipe for disaster.
Period.
Of course it would lead to happier families. Wouldn’t be popping out babies with different daddies to get more Uncle Sugar payoff. That would mean more marriages to have children. It would be very beneficial for society.
Wow...not one shred of data where the woman contributed to the failure...
I’ll give that study all the consideration it’s due.
I think it works for both women and men. Some women want the wedding. They don’t want the marriage.
By the same token, some men are looking for a woman who will replace their mom, and they can have sex with.
Both of these attitudes are wrong, and will result in major problems down the road.
You need to watch Conservative black content creators on YouTube!
Nah. But you can blame it on LBJ. Really, the role of a father in an American family has been replaced by "Uncle Sam".
Edgelord, all women have an important nerve found in the finger next to the pinkie on their left hand.
It is unique to their sex. It runs up their arm then down through the torso to the groinocological region.
Gold short-circuits this nerve.
You must have been burned badly.
I was in a room of 26 plaintiffs in divorce court.
I was the only man.
I was tired of being treated like an ATM machine and she was plotting to take all my savings.
If she had been successful she’d be the one filing.
But she was European and figured an American would be too stupid to figure out the plan, as is typical for Euros to believe.
What a jaundiced notion of Holy Matrimony...
A lot of men and women do STILL marry for love.
