Yes.... And it began in the '60s with no fault divorce. That used to be a hard thing to get you were usually ordered into counseling especially if there were children involved.
Now it's too easy to walk away when you're aggravated and find something new and when it happened in the '60s my mother told me that with that policy we would begin to see the 'rot from within'.
"Don't think your father doesn't drive me crazy and I can walk out of here but we both know that you children need both of us". She was just being sassy to a very young girl who is asking about what she was listening to on the radio... The passing of 'no fault' divorce.
It would send women back into the workplace in droves to support themselves. The treasury could collect many more taxes and commerce could almost double with the need for two homes two cars two toasters two microwaves two Barbie dolls and two GI joes. One for each home. Almost doubling the economy.
They've talked about abortion for so long I wish they would talk about divorce.
"They" know the power of the family. We all know the names of the Rothschild family or the Rockefeller family. We have heard of Mafia families and of the 13 families. There is power in a family so they want to keep it all for themselves.
Divorces, abortions, drugs, feminism, women working rather than bring up children, single parent families, LGBTQIA ... etc, they all push the average Jane and Joe away from maintaining a solid family.
REMOVAL OF THE FATHER. Social engineering, started with publicly Making a women's liberation movement.
Women's rights needed to be gained. But the term women's liberation planted a seed in the brain that all women should claim as victims and it starts in the family. So removing the integrity of the father figure is key. Fast forward, divorce skyrocketing, abortion legal.
It is family that enriches the soul as we grow. Stabilizing our integrity and providing the internal community around us that we need when life is tough. It also teaches you how to live with others for at least 18 years. And those are the lessons you take to your adult life in marriage and living with someone else.
Feels like deja'vu to me. The family unit has been dead for a long time now IMO, with only straggling survivors left.
Survivor here!
There is always hope, and with some half baked planning, and a couple serious about their commitments, the nuclear family can survive, even today.
First things: never seek advice about marriage from someone that doesn't have the marriage you want. Doesn't matter who.
Parents are awesome people. If they have a rotten marriage, they are not someone to bring your struggles to.
Friends or drinking buddies can be awesome. If they have a rotten marriage, they are not someone to bring your struggles to.
Marriage counselors can be a great tool. If they're single, fire them. If they have a rotten marriage, fire them. They are not someone to council with about improvement in your own marriage.
They can only teach you how to have the same or worse quality of what they've got. If it's garbage they have, it's garbage you'll get.
It takes more work. It takes better daily habits. And it takes being unplugged from social media, news, tv, and propoganda in general, but it can be done. I have two girls now, and they get fewer and more filtered cartoon programs than I did. Probably 1hr/week total. More time with dexterity building toys and imaginative play.

"women's empowerment" doubled the debt-slave workforce and reduced time for family.
Hell no they have not, me and Mrs. Lahey just had another shit apple.
