Divorce as we know it should be abolished.
A contract of marriage should be like any other private contract with some standard terms which must be incorporated just as a minimum notice period to end it.
If churches had not stuck their noses in we would never had had the battle of the state to wrench marriage out of church clutches.
Financial arrangements between parties and personal responsibilities for children are different. Prenups should be the norm and could be incorporated into marriage contracts. Upbringing of children is the area which needs careful attention so both genetic mother and genetic father are responsible until age 18 in equal measure. Any reliance on the state should result in a charge ( like a student loan) repayable for life. That should curb some parents going off and creating 2nd families without much thought as to "gone before" family.
