Should it become more difficult to marry and divorce?

Divorce is a sad thing that often leads to bad turnouts for the kids. People are too willing to jump into a relationship, and then too eager to get out. Should there be some sort of requirement before marriage to ensure a more lasting union?

Yes, SOMETHING should be looked into before the marriage is allowed.

I know that its impractical, but maybe the relatives of the two involved should take a firmer hand in the situation. For example I personally know a girl from work who hated her husband BEFORE she married him. They were having all kinds of problems before they got married. We told her not to, but she has some weird stuff going on inside her head and she married him anyways. She is miserable now and predicts that she will divorce him soon. This could have been prevented.

That is absurd, marriage should be allowed no matter what.

this is a personal problem. marriage has been around forever, people are just changing. it can always help to give advice but if someone wants to get married that is their own damn choice. making it more difficult or putting more restrictions on marriage or divorce will only be inconveniencing people who really meant their vows and understand the point of marriage.
