Divorce declining, but so is marriage​

By Sharon Jayson, USA TODAY

Divorce is on the decline in the USA, but a report to be released today suggests that may be due more to an increase in people living together than to more lasting marriages.

Couples who once might have wed and then divorced now are not marrying at all, according to The State of our Unions 2005. The annual report, which analyzes Census and other data, is issued by the National Marriage Project at New Jersey's Rutgers University.

The U.S. divorce rate is 17.7 per 1,000 married women, down from 22.6 in 1980. The marriage rate is also on a steady decline: a 50% drop since 1970 from 76.5 per 1,000 unmarried women to 39.9, says the report, whose calculations are based on an internationally used measurement.

"Cohabitation is here to stay," says David Popenoe, a Rutgers sociology professor and report co-author. "I don't think it's good news, especially for children," he says. "As society shifts from marriage to cohabitation — which is what's happening — you have an increase in family instability."

Cohabiting couples have twice the breakup rate of married couples, the report's authors say. And in the USA, 40% bring kids into these often-shaky live-in relationships.

"It is important now to think beyond the divorce rate to other kinds of couple unions and look at how stable they are," says Barbara Dafoe Whitehead, a social historian and report co-author.

"It's a pretty short period of time for that change (cohabitation) to have occurred and to have taken hold in the way it has," she says.

In the USA, 8.1% of coupled households are made up of unmarried, heterosexual partners. Although many European countries have higher cohabitation rates, divorce rates in those countries are lower, and more children grow up with both biological parents, even though the parents may not be married, Popenoe says.

The USA has the lowest percentage among Western nations of children who grow up with both biological parents, 63%, the report says.

"The United States has the weakest families in the Western world because we have the highest divorce rate and the highest rate of solo parenting," Popenoe says.

 

Here is it:

"Lyrics for: No Woman No Cry

No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Cause I remember when we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Observing the hypocrites
Mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, Oh, good friends we have lost
Along the way
In this great future,
You can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I seh
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Said I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
As it was log burning through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
And so I've got to push on through,
Oh, while I'm gone
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
So no woman no cry
No woman no cry, oh
My little sister
Don't shed no tears
No woman no cry."

No Woman No Cry was No. 37 on Rolling Stone's top 500 songs of all time.

Main reasons are money issues (thats also a main reason people aren't getting married as much) and getting married before really knowing the other person, I think.

We should have manditory marriage counseling in this country.

 

Women don't spend enough time in the kitchen these days. And what about the laundry? Seems women have forgotten their duties. Must be this whole feminist crap.









Just kidding. :dupe: :spam:

 

I think that the main reason is the bad comunucation.

 

Divorce is simply when the two people cease to share their lives together. There can be many factors, personally I think commitment and compromise are the main reasons.

 

Biological Nature. I assume that the post was touching on how animals (including humans) were not naturally meant to stay together for life.

 

Nice link! And on that note:

People used to communicate much more effectively than they do now. Used to be the man talked and the woman listened. Things have done a 180 now. Now the woman bitches and the man says yeas dear, OK dear.
Perhaps the biggest reason for the increase in divorce rate is feminism. Or maybe that's just a small part of it?

 

the ONLY reason for divorce is when both partners do not give 100% towards making the relationship work. If one or the other or both don't really want the marriage to work, and if both don't try their hardest to make things work, it won't. All of the divorces I have ever seen were a good thing for everyone involved. One partner quit trying, expected the other to do all the work in the relationship.
