“There are numerous cultures around the world where the divorce rate is near zero. Why? The common denominator is that divorce is not viewed as an option. It may be against the law or against the norm of their society. In cultures where divorce is an acceptable choice, couples can decide in advance that it is not a choice for them. Once this "out" is off the table, couples are forced to find answers to their differences.”
