I don't think she should make divorce illegal. Thats assinine. If you end up with a cheating spouse, an abusive spouse, or just an outright freak, you should be able to end the marriage.

Now what I would like to see is making marriage HARDER to get into. Institute a 2 yr waiting period. Make sure that the relationship isn't a fleeting attraction by dragging out the engagement for two years.

Require couples counseling. Require classes on how to manage finances, how to reconcile any religious differences, and above all require parenting classes! Make sure you're on the same page with your prospective spouse on these things BEFORE you take your vows.

If getting into marriage was harder in the first place, the idiots that are in love with being in love would bail from the lack of instant gratification before they ever made it to the altar. I think that would sink divorce rate.

Making divorce illegal is stupid, and doesn't address the biggest problem people seem to have with divorce in the first place: the screwed up laws that govern the process.

That is a great concept EXCEPT that it seems a lot like having the government giving you approval to get married. As with most everything else the government has their hands in it could end up corrupted and you would need apply to get married.

Is cheating the only breaking of the vows? What if one cheats after years of abuse or having sex withheld by their spouse or any other number of things that could lead TO the cheating, but wasn't the actual cause of the marriage being broken to start with?
