E. List at least three undesirable social conditions that you think will be the result or effect
of this social problem.
Divorce can be lead to Separation and divorce, and the events leading up to them,
interrupt the stability and predictability that children need. Other than the death of an
immediate family member, divorce is the most stressful event that can affect a family.
Because the world as they know it has ended, children may feel a great loss as well as
anxiety, anger, and sadness. Children may fear being abandoned or losing their parents'
love. Also, for many reasons, parenting skills often worsen around the time of the
divorce.
F. What strategy/ies do you think should be done to solve this social problem? Any
immediate action?
Very Important
Important

Of Little Importance
Unimportant
1. Getting married is
2. The reason for marriage is VERY IMPORTANT FOR MAN AND WOMEN
3. One is ready for marriage when I HAVE MONEY, HOUSE, and HEALTH
Can divorce between couples be avoided? Yes or No? Please justify your answer? Any
solution?
YES
1. Be thrifty. A recent study of 1,734 married couples revealed that couples who don't value
money very highly score 10 to 15 percent better on marriage stability
2- Work (especially wives). Ironically enough, feminism has also been very good for marital
health and stability.
3- Spend time apart. More counter-intuitive wisdom. I think that some couples make the mistake
of thinking that the true sign of a happy couple is wanting to do every last thing together.
4. Have sex. Just make that sure you don't spend too much time apart.
