From the past to the present, people all over the world have decided to “get married.” However, some couples cannot maintain their relationship so they opt for divorce, which is one of the solutions to deal with the problems between husband and wife. Most people say they think carefully before getting married, but divorce rates continue to rise. There are three main causes of divorce: the change of the role of a man and a woman, the stress of modern life and the lack of communication between the married couple.
The first significant cause of the recent increase in divorce rates is that women completely change roles. In the past, the men had to earn the money to pay the family expenses, while the women took care of the housework. Due to these situations, it is too difficult for most women to separate from their husbands. However, these situations are completely different today. Equality between men and women in roles is very clear, women can work outside the home to earn money, while men share household chores such as cooking, cleaning, washing and childcare. Women are more independent today when it comes to earning money and maintaining their cost of living. As a result, divorce rates appear to have increased with the reversal of these roles.
Another cause to confirm the recent increase in divorce rates is the stress of modern life. Many people, who live in other countries, are under considerable pressure to earn money. For example, in Thailand, students generally want to go to famous universities mainly because they offer a good opportunity to find a job or earn a lot of money. This circumstance not only occurs in Thailand, but also occurs in many countries. Some people are unemployed; Consequently, this causes stress in your family, which can lead to divorce. Some families can earn money, but not enough to cover their expenses, so it is easy to think about divorce. However, unemployment rates are continually rising and, as a result, divorce rates are rising. There is no doubt that the stress of modern life can lead to a recent increase in divorce rates.
The final cause of the increasing recent divorce is lack of communication. Due to the financial responsibilities of every family, many people are busy. Therefore, they do not have enough time to talk about the problems with their partners, which generates the probability of divorce. Some couples often keep quiet when they have problems with each other, so small problems can turn into big problems, resulting in divorce. It is quite clear that the more communications are used, the more divorce rates are reduced.
Although these three causes of the recent increase in divorce rates expressed above, there are also two effects of the recent increase in divorce rates: negative effects and positive effects. For example, the effects of the recent increase in divorce rates are negative effects. Most couples usually have children when they marry, and divorce can have a direct effect on the children. Children living in single-parent families are more likely to become pregnant as teenagers, drop out of high school, abuse drugs, and have aggressive emotional and behavioral problems, which lead to social problems. Some children decide to leave home when their parents separate and subsequently become homeless. Due to the scarcity of education, jobs are down to earth and crime is likely to be the result.
On the other hand, another effect of rising divorce rates is positive. People who divorce by consent of their partners want to have a better quality of life, since they are not happy with their spouses. In view of that, with the separation they can work more efficiently. Often their mental state improves because they are free from the gossip of their spouses. Not only do they have more free time to do many things, but divorce can free a family from the violence of a fight between husband and wife. In which everyone in the family can have better physical and mental health, particularly children.
In conclusion, a family is one of the important parts of the society, so many people are aware of the importance of the relationship in the family. Nowadays, divorce has become a substantial problem due to the changing roles of women, the stress of modern life and the lack of communication. However, there are also two different forms of effects, which are negative and positive effects. Some couples, who do not have children, divorce by consent, so divorce should be a good solution for couples to deal with this problem. On the other hand, some couples who have children in their family should think before ending their marriage in divorce; otherwise, innocent children are likely to become victims of this situation. Although people tend to think carefully before getting married, divorce rates are continually increasing.
