I also agree that we need to go back to fault divorce.. The only winners in a fault divorce are the lawyers. The couple ends up hating each other worse then they did when the started. The children end up having to choose one parent and condemn the other. A significant part of the assets of the family goes to the lawyers.
There has to be a better solution.

Halloween 1998 ? I haven't a clue, newbie. I didn't write ANYTHING at all anout that date.
Do try to get over yourself, dear. Your marriage is failing, You are the one who had to talk about how mch money they have. Now, you imply that you are a member of Mensa. YAWN ... I passed their test, when I was still a teen in boarding school.
I am ; however , sorry that you find it difficult to " wade " through my replies. Perhaps MENSA needs to revoke your membership. : - )
To: pcl
Offer one.
To: Dr. Octagon
One solution that will never get past GO, (trial lawyers too politically powerful):
Remove the lawyers from the equasion. Require each party to represent themselves in front of a jurist (judge).
CPA's can handle the distribution of assets.

Member since 10/31/98...a reference to the fact that you suggest this is a factor.
I joined Mensa when I was 16, and did so via the WAIS.
You have no clue as to my marital status, obviously.
It's the capitals primarily that make it tough...lower case is not unreasonable.
But say this: pax on personality vs. personality, and back you the issue, OK?
To: onyx
Removing the lawyers would require a law so ordering...

But constructively, I'm very much in favor of mediation. Feminists oppose this, because it divests the system of gyncentric bias.
To: Dr. Octagon
Which is the reason why I stated my plan will never pass muster. The congress is laden with lawyers, the majority of whom are democrats!

You are correct about staying happily married . There really IS a formula ! Marry your best friend, have common interests and shared goals. If one has an interest / hobby, the other should at least try to find out about it, and enjoy it with his / her spouse. If that just won't work, then don't condemn / forbide the other's enjoyment of it. Hardships aren't an excuse to bolt ; they , like all other shared experiences make a marriage stronger.
Never get married because everyone else you know is, you list after that person, you lust after the position / mopney of that person, you want to get away from your family / job / present condition .
Know yourself, and know just what you are willing to put up with, and what you can't. Know what you are looking for in a mate, and don't expect life or marriage to be easy / always happy / without problems / unexpected events.
Yeterday's COMMON SENSE , has been almost lost / forgotten by most, today.
Nope, YOU aren't an anacranism at all. LOL There are many of us; but the complainers are the most vocal and the most noticed.

I've never voted for a democrat and I never shall!

ALL:Historically speaking...anti-father liberalized divorce has been instituted for 30+ years. Look at what has happened to society in the exact same time period: crime, teen pregnancy, drugs...
The time periods don't coincide coincidentally.
It's cause and effect.
Comments?

Good.

What is the origin of "nopardons"?
To: pcl
How would you lessen the incidence of divorce?
To: Dr. Octagon
Historically speaking...anti-father liberalized divorce has been instituted for 30+ years. Look at what has happened to society in the exact same time period: crime, teen pregnancy, drugs... ... bastard births; abortions legalized; sport sex; homosexuals out of their closets; the cancerous growth of the NEA, the DNC, the ACLU; lawyers galore; ad nauseum.

"nopardons" for the criminal democrats, particularly when pardoned by our criminal x-president, a democrat, of course.
nopardons is not one to cross! :^) She is one of my best friends!
