D-I-V-O-R-C-E

The only way out of all marriages is a divorce. It's been haunting the lives of soon-to-be ex-husbands and ex-wives for some time to come. Everybody knows that all marriages will end in divorce because of either infidelity, money problems, or parental issues. These ex-couples are fighting over everything: the kids, money, who gets the house, and the cars. It seems that all divorced couples can't make up their minds on who gets what, so there's divorce courts and stuff. Even as I speak, the children are unhappy about their divorce; it will alter the future. There's also alimony payments being ordered by the judges in all of the divorce courts, especially when either the mother or the father gets custody of the children and he or she will have no choice but to pay child support. How sad is that? Now that these two people (a male and a female) are no longer married, they'll have to cope with being the ex-husbands, the ex-wives, their new beaus (boyfriends and girlfriends), different living arrangements, everything. There's something wrong with former married couples today: they just don't know when to solve all of their problems without ever getting a divorce. It's bad enough that the former in-laws will have to deal with the fact that their sons-in-law and daughters-in-law are no longer married. And if all of the divorces keep increasing and these children get more upset than ever in the near future, there's no telling what bad thing might happen next.
