My stand, as a student, on DIVORCE BILL!

Nowadays, some people think that divorce should not be implemented in our country but there are indeed other people who believe that divorce is one of the most effective ways to gain liberty from your husbands/wives. According to Jimmy Carter that “ If we want less government, we must have stronger families, for government steps in by necessity when families have failed." Do you think this has a point? Do we think that government should be involved in this issue? And do we believe that divorce is a good way of portraying democracy in our country? It has been debated by many but the real question goes like this, are you PRO or ANTI?

As a student, I strongly agree that Divorce bill should be implemented in our country not because I’m not a family oriented person, but because I know that this can help our nation build a healthy democratic life.

At first I was Anti divorce bill. Why? Because I was raised to understand that marriage is sacred and it should be cherished and MUST stay forever... till death do you part as the matrimonial rites would say.

First of all, my stand on being pro-divorce was influenced simply by my observations. A husband and wife fight everyday due to some reasons like; there's a third party, the husband often beats the wife, the wife is not a good wife as she goes to spa or parlor everyday and goes home late at night, the husband is vicious: he drinks a lot, he smokes a lot and he parties a lot; the husband is a drug addict, the wife is a nagger and always badmouths her husband, the wife forgets her emotional or sexual responsibility, the husband is not a good financial provider, the husband is psychologically incapacitated or the wife maybe and others. These are facts that should be taken into consideration by our solons or lawmakers to pass a divorce bill. These are irreconcilable differences and will never make a family life blissful. 

In addition, I am a Catholic and I understand that the sacrament of marriage must be kept sacred and holy but the facts mentioned are making the marriage itself chaotic and messy. I don't think a husband and wife can stand a daily fight, badmouthing each other and sometimes go a little physical throughout their married life. I certainly don't think a husband will be patient enough listening to the daily "long oratorical speech" of his wife, nagging,shouting and crying out all the misfortunes of her life. It's painful to see couples making quarelling and hitting each other a daily routine. It's even more painful to see a man keeping his mouth shut or just walked out the house and stay outside overnight to avoid his wife's loud mouth or to see a guy drowning himself into alcohol because of disappointment in his married life. It's saddening to think that these things are happening, but what else can we do? Let's just accept the fact that maybe it's now meant for us that's why divorce bill is here to help us.  

You may ask, what will happen with the children? Children don’t prosper in unhappy homes.

A progressive marriage is an adventure, not a sacrifice. It isn’t a string around one’s neck but a partnership that allows growth and satisfaction. Sadly, we’re living in a culture where mistakes are punished. Instead of encouraging second or even third chances, and allowing a person to rebuild his life, a person caught in a bad marriage is simply expected to endure.

Finally, this bill does not promote divorce mentality. It promotes liberty in every home and family.Divorce pertains to the legal dissolution of the marriage. Whether or not the church recognizes it is its own funeral. The important thing, for any aggrieved spouse at least, is that divorce grants him or her certain rights and deprives the other of certain rights too.
