Every family is completely different. It used to be that over half of
             families were made up of two adults who loved each other and had one, two,
             12, or even no children. It was abnormal to meet a family made of a
             divorcee and children (or pets for those no children couples) split between
             the parents. Although now, everywhere I look there seems to be divorced
             families everywhere! Or single parent families, or foster homes, or
             boys/girls homes. There are a lot of articles and books out there about how
             these sorts of disintegrations of the 'family unit' are a huge problem.
             However, the way that I see it is that in order to be the "most important
             problem societies and cultures today", you need two things; a common issue,
             in this case disintegration of families, and a willingness to solve said
             issue. And from what I'm experiencing, seeing, and noticing, there does not
             seem to be a big willingness to solve this issue of the disintegration of

             years I've watched two families that I know extremely well, fall apart.
             Like I said before, there has to be some willingness to solve the issue for
             something to be a problem. First though let me get this straight, I'm not
             saying that the breakdown of the family unit isn't an issue that needs
             solving, it does need solving, I'm saying that it's not the most important
             problem. For example, the reason that one of these two families stopped
             being a family is that the dad "fell out of love" with the mom. I say "fell
             out of love" like that because I think it's impossible to fall out of love
             with somebody. Isn't love meant to be eternal? 'Til death do us part'?
             Therein lies my argument that's there isn't a willingness to solve this
