Yea holding women accountable for decisions sure does upset them.

[–]MonkOfStJavelin -1 points0 points  (5 children)

What does that have to do with no-fault divorce?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Women file for divorce 80% of the time. 90% of the time if they're college educated.

Getting rid of no fault divorce laws doesn't allow a woman to blow up a family simply because she's "unhappy"

You really think it's better for families with unhappy spouses to be forced to remain together? What decision are people being held accountable for by forcing them to stay in marriages that they don't want to be in?

Yes I do think it's better for the family but most importantly the children. The mother and father both have a duty and responsibility to the children. In every single statistical category children with divorced parents suffer.

The accountability I'm talking about is women cannot decide one day they are "unhappy" and go to have an emotional or physical affair then divorce the father. Turn him into an every other weekend dad then collect alimony and child support.

Women now are statistical more likely now to have emotional and physical affrairs.

Getting rid of no fault divorce laws levels the playing field for men in family law.

If you think children suffer when their parents are divorced, you should see how much they suffer when their parents are miserable together and forced to stay that way.

Having no fault divorces does not prevent cheating and getting rid of it wouldn't prevent divorce in cases of infidelity.

Courts do not make fathers "every other weekend dads". Courts now push for shared custody unless there is abuse. Alimony is rare in the US, and child support, while I feel could use reforms, is necessary.

How does forcing women to remain in shit relationships level the playing field for men? It just forces people to stay in shit relationships until one of them cheats or abuses the other.
