Comments on: Marriage subscription? http://www.cherylontheweb.com/2007/09/19/marriage-subscription/ About the small things in life that seem oh so big Tue, 06 Jan 2009 00:27:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2 By: Stephen http://www.cherylontheweb.com/2007/09/19/marriage-subscription/#comment-3842 Stephen Mon, 24 Sep 2007 11:51:58 +0000 http://www.cherylontheweb.com/2007/09/19/marriage-subscription/#comment-3842 I just dont see how this will lower the divorce rate. Most people, at least in the US get divorced around 1 year of marriage or after the children have grown up and left the nest. This will not stop those people who feel that they HAVE to get married right now just to fullfill some traditional means or those people who "stay together for the kids". Instead of creating laws that create a "get out of jail free card" for marriages, society should look better upon people moving in together PRIOR to marriage without the negative stigma. This allows couples to get to view each other in there rawest (word?) and uncut forms. Couples should try this out before jumping straight into a marriage that "should" be forever.

I'm glad that the germans aren't behind it either. heaven knows we don't need an idea like this catching on. by the way, I miss you Cheryl!!!!
