Why do Americans with children get divorced so easily?

[Anonymous]

You go on tinder and you see a ton of single fathers and even worse single mothers. I can only hope those children don’t grow up to become addicts or something. The old system of divorce is the best, is a lie, and it isn’t working for the country.

The cheapening of all human interaction via commercialisation has led to that outcome. People don't invest in their relationships any more. They have been given false impressions of how many prospective partners they have, so they act like they have nothing to lose and that they should just break off relationships if anything makes them even slightly uncomfortable... whether or not they already have kids.
End result: more single parents.

Blame Capitalism. It is 100% Capitalism's fault. It ruins everything it touches.

our sexual education here is lacking, that's why

and we feel like we have to get married young or by a certain age, or we get shunned from society. so pick a person, get married, and then you can live the "American dream"

but then reality hits. you two aren't compatible. or someone cheats.

it gets messy quick. and if you get divorced, you get money.

so...

butttt you also get behind in life. especially if you're a single mom. life gets even harder, despite any money. you are seen as ruined.

thus, the depression cycle in america continues. vows don't mean shit here.

Because they're not compatible and forcing them to stay together will get people killed.

Why is divorce not common in Europe outside of Russia and Ukraine?

Culture differences and legal differences

Maybe stop using online dating profiles as your metric for familial success? I’ve been married over 10 years with kids. Still married.

It wasn't best. It kept a lot of woman and children with abusive men.

It is the same in the Western world and feminism is to blame. And you are right it is worse to be a single mum.

Some don’t even get as far as getting married that’s why you see so many single mothers

[LazerBean]

Because that's just a consequence for promiscuity.
