Divorce rates dropping!
"Till death do us part.
Truly. In today's fast-paced society, where some believe relationships are as disposable as razors, the national per capita divorce rate has declined steadily since peaking in 1981 and is now the lowest since 1970, according to an Associated Press study." http://www.star-telegram.com/389/story/98274.html

I don't think that their figures are correct. My daughter can count on probably 2 hands the kids in her class (of about 65-70) that have both parents still married and every class is like hers. It's really sad. My husband teaches a class at church like Boy Scouts where probably 20% of the kids live with both of their parents.

It would be really nice if it was true. I'm keeping my fingers crossed...I really love happy endings.
