If anything that just goes to prove how selfish the attitudes are; only those who see family as a limiting "life is over once you have kids" concept would make such an argument.Shakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13657830810835591711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048953.post-39963281945831939532009-10-28T23:21:48.234+00:002009-10-28T23:21:48.234+00:00Going on a psuedo tangent, as well as greater expo...Going on a psuedo tangent, as well as greater exposure amongst females to pretty godless education (detriment to family),<br /><br />there is the increased fertility span thanks to medical and lifestyle advances (probably assistance to family).<br /><br /><br />?fugnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048953.post-901381099307610242009-10-28T15:11:13.123+00:002009-10-28T15:11:13.123+00:00>But the demonstration effect of family breakdo...>But the demonstration effect of family breakdowns and pursuits of atomic liberal happinesses seem new to me.<br /><br />There's definitely a correlation between the decrease in family life and the increase in the pursuit of fulfilment for those who don't get off of family building.<br /><br />Perhaps it's not causal, but I personally think it makes perfect sense that a independent search for happiness would affect a collective such as a family.Shakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13657830810835591711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048953.post-71523056886022060322009-10-28T12:54:02.281+00:002009-10-28T12:54:02.281+00:00Divorce *sigh*Divorce *sigh*Kianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048953.post-81376884845469256762009-10-28T11:15:36.291+00:002009-10-28T11:15:36.291+00:00its incomplete.

I think that's a good indication of how stable and happy marriages were in the past too. In that sense I don't think you can really criticise a report which suggests having the attitudes we held back then as a solution to fix the state we find ourselves in.Shakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13657830810835591711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048953.post-62490588489137977752009-10-28T09:07:31.945+00:002009-10-28T09:07:31.945+00:00Or men arent relatively skilled enough to avoid th...Or men arent relatively skilled enough to avoid them?
