You know, if no fault divorce were legislated out of being, divorce rates would plummet. If men want to have any credibility on this subject, they should address the root of the problem. Otherwise, they are rightfully accused of being whiners.

Any time fathers assert their right to parent, they are labelled "whiners"...by those who seek to shut them down, and to shutdown/divert the discussion of parental equality as well.

Custody and Cash are the twin roots of the divorce industry.

Cash has to be regarded as the secondary issue, because money is replaceable. Even so, the marriage contract should explicitly state the husband's and the wife's respective ownership interests in current and future assets, and those ownership interests should remain as delineated in the marriage contract in the event of a divorce.

Custody is the primary issue. A man's heart and soul is intertwined with his identity as a father. That fathers are robbed of their right to parent by family courts daily is the greatest crime against men and the human race ever committed by the U.S. government.

Regarding no-fault divorce, it is usually...incorrectly...put forth as "the root of the problem" by those who claim that the cause of high divorce rates is the "covenant marriage set": adultery, desertion, and domestic violence.

While I support covenant marriage laws, the primary reason that divorces are filed primarily by women is because under current family court practices, women are virtually guaranteed primary/sole custody of the couple's children.

That's why I believe RPJPC (Rebuttal Presumption of Joint Physical Custody) laws will eliminate this problem and provide incentive for BOTH parents to cooperate in the best interests of the children, whether married, divocing, or never married.

It seems odd to me that many of the most vocal Father's Rights advocates dwell on no-fault divorce instead of strongly advocating RPJPC.
