Divorce is brutal on children

https://notthebee.com/article/a-massive-new-study-shows-the-brutal-effects-that-divorce-has-on-children-here-are-the-big-takeaways

Among the study’s findings:

Divorce increases teen births by 73 percent and mortality by age 25 by 35 percent.

It also significantly drives up rates of incarceration, by about 43 percent.

And it drives up mortality “by 35 to 55 percent at divorce,” with those higher levels persisting “for at least 10 years.”

The researchers note that “changes in household income, neighborhood quality, and parent proximity account for 25 to 60 percent of these divorce effects.”

Marry up, Marry Godly!

“The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” – Matthew 19:3–6
