Greetings to the amazing steemians in the house. Its yet another opportunity to relate with you all in this season 10 contest, which talks about divorce. Divorce has always been, and it is still one of the major problems that the society is battling with. If we look at our society today, we will see that they are a lot of broken homes. Children are growing without the guidance of parents. Children are suffering both mentally, physically, and emotionally due to broken homes. Before I continue with my discussion on marriage, I do love to appreciate this community for it effort towards organizing this weekly contest, and for finding it necessary to support the progress of this platform. Follow me below as I use the contest questions as a guide to talk about divorce.

What is your experience as far as Divorce is concerned ?


As of now, I'm still a bachelor who has never had any marriage experience. And I'm glad that I have never seen nor heard my parents parting ways. Nevertheless, divorce has always been the topic of discussion in the society today. And because divorce is so rampart in our today's generation, I have seen many families fall apart. Some of the reasons for the divorce I experienced are even nothing to talk about because, they are so silly. Sometimes I wonder, could it be that they are tired of each other or they can't just tolorate the differences of each other? Well..., no one knows. Just of recent, I heard one of my neighbour telling his wife that she is the worst thing that ever happened to him. She responded by saying " assuming i knew you are this bad, I couldn't have made any attempt to even date you, not to even talk of marrying you". Before the following morning, the husband divorced the wife. What a generation we find ourselves.

In not less than 200 words, write a poem about Divorce


Gone are those days when when couple look into the eyes of each other and say " I will love you in both good and bad days ". Gone are those days when couples stick together no matter the condition and circumstances that sourround them. Gone are those days when couple see each other as one. Gone are those days when fidelity and trust exist between couple's.

What generation are we in today? We are in a generation where couples don't stick to their oaths. We are in a generation where tolerance has departed from homes. We are in a generation where partners need commitment, yet they are not committed. We are in a generation that's full of selfishness.

Today the society is suffering from divorce. Children are growing without the guidance of both parents. Children are becoming nuisance due to lack of parental Care's. Children are growing with relationship struggles. Our streets are full with sex hawker's because they have been divorced.

How long will the society continue to bare this? We need to recheck ourselves before going into marriage. Are you ready to tolerate your partner when the bad days come? If no, marriage is not for you. Can you keep your promise of sticking only to you partner? If no, stay away from marriage. Are you mentally and emotionally mature for marriage. If no, wait until you are ready. The society have suffered violence due to broken homes. Change is what the society need. Children need to grow with the guidance of both parents. That's the only way the society can be a better place.

•lack of trust

This can be built during courtship

Very right causes of divorce are as such as infidelity , lack of trust between marriage partners or couple , early married among others . One on serious not is incompatibility between the concerned couple.
