Bunk?

What’s so “bunky” about calling for the end to no-fault divorces?

Nothing at all.

Trying to penalize people for exercising their legal rights because you're unable or unwilling to end no-fault divorces is bunk, however.

Because there are many situations where such an alternative is far superior than dragging dirty laundry out into public.

Concern for the children is foremost in my mind. Why should the children be subjected to more crapola that arises when abuse or adultery are the reason for the divorce. Do you think dragging those children into a courtroom to provide witness/testimony against one or the other parent is a good thing for them?

I have seen marriages end in divorce with children involved where the no-fault was a far superior wasy to go than the attempt of proving the abuse -- as there are other forms of abuse than just physical. I've also seen mariages continue that should not have because of the lack of no-fault divorce at the time.

Exactly.

We have a LOT of social liberals on this forum.

Is it surprising that we have trouble finding candidates that are true conservatives???
