Divorce

No-fault divorce is a moral obscenity. When there are no children involved, you have one partner dealing a crushing, permanently life scaring blow to the other. Where children are involved, you have nothing less that emotional child abuse taking place. Please notice that I am only talking about no-fault divorce, although any divorce is emotionally devastating to children. To use an analogy of a few days ago, if all of the tears shed by all of the children because of divorce were to be stored up in bottles, we could pour those bottles out and create a seventh great lake. The landscape of the American continent would be forever altered by these immense new bodies of water. School children would have to learn two more names when memorizing the great lakes: Lake Erie, Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, Lake Ontario, Lake of Tears of Broken Hearted Women, and Lake of Tears of Broken Hearted Children.
