Did I miss something......who was advocating outside interference ?. Meself, I think that there is a far more casual attitude towards marriage, that is not good for society, or for kids. I am not talking about battered partners sticking it out, but normal arguments and problems that at one time most people worked through, but more often now lead to a parting of the ways......esp , if someone else more desirable comes along.   But I am not advocating interference, just expressing an opinion.
