Divorce & Remarriage (Apr 1-5)


Divorce and remarriage can be extremely hard for a family.  A lot of the time children are forced to pick sides with a parent.  They have to constantly deal with one parent saying bad things about the other.  What really saddens me is how little parents think about their kids when it comes to divorce.    Instead of trying to work it out people tend to feel that the easiest thing to do is to just bail.  Our Professor showed us a study involving divorce which showed that 70% of the respondents, who participated in the study, two years after their divorce, suggested that they not only could have saved the marriage but should have.  A statistic like this really saddens me.  What has happened to our society where people would rather just throw away a marriage than do what is right and work on it?
