YOU'RE MORE LIKELY TO DIVORCE IF.....

YOU'RE MORE LIKELY TO DIVORCE IF...

Have divorced parents

Married young

Lived together before engagement

Been previously divorced or marrying a divorced partner

Having a child before marriage (to a lesser extent getting pregnant before the wedding)

Being much older or younger than your spouse

Marrying someone of a different race

Following different religions

Having NO religion

Having low education levels

Twas while reading the Florida Times Union this August morning 8-15-05, that I came across these items in the Lifestyle section. The article itself was written by Kyung M. Song for the Seattle Times.

It would appear that the keys to a successful marriage (staying together without actually committing homicide or suicide) are classically conservative "family values."

Unluckily the culture at large appears to be continuously drifting away from these values at some steady rate of speed.
I believe that as family break-ups or break-downs occur, CHAOS grows.

CHAOS feeds further breakdowns in society. Sigh JB
