How has no-fault divorce affected our society?

What will be an ideal response?


Issues include:
• No need to create grounds in collusion with one another, particularly when alimony was
contingent on the clean hands of the recipient spouse.
• It eliminates the need for a public and acrimonious courtroom battle, with proof required of
wrong-doing.
• It helps maintain a moderately harmonious family unit, even after a divorce, to the extent
necessary to raise minor children together.
• It costs less, since there are no grounds to prove in court.
• It has helped expedite the process, allowing parties to re-order their lives in much less time.
