Unfortunately after 2 years of marriage, my wife and I are separating and want to get a divorce. I am Indian and she is british, married in India under Special marriage Act. I am permanent resident and if we get a divorce through UK court, would that be valid in Indian courts and what procedure is there to make the divorce known or register in indian marriage registrar’s office? This is a Divorce by mutual consent. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
Divorce granted in one country is generally recognized by other countries (same as marriage registered abroad)
Looks like you are looking at divorce by mutual consent, in which case even UK should be okay for you
She says 70% of inmates in US come from single parents and that a simple change in marital laws could solve many of the crime problems.
It sounds like most people agree that her claims are pretty far fetched. At the end of the day, it sells books. As bad as it sounds, I hope she says the things she does to make money and not actually believe what comes out of her mouth.
EDIT: I agree with the answer that said it’s all in how the kids are raised whether by 2 parents or one. My mom did a damned good job for being on her own. And I know more than just the person I mentioned who was raised by 2 parents that got in trouble with the law.
hm mm…
Well I can see her point, but I don’t completely agree. I was raised by a single mother who had to work either 2 jobs or long hours (if she could get them) at one job. There was me, my sister, and my brother. And without a father around we got into a lot more trouble than if we would have with 2 parents and the supervision of a 2 parent household.
My sister and I never got in trouble with the law, other than underage drinking, so no jail time. But my brother has been in jail. He’s not now, and has been on a good path in his life for a long time. But he didn’t start getting in trouble until my mom was remarried, when he was like 13 or 14. So even with 2 parents he still managed to sneak out of the house at night and (with the help of an older accomplice) he was breaking into people’s cars. But of course he may have been acting out because of having a new stepfather. It’s hard to adjust to having a father when you never had one before. And by the way the accomplice was raised in a 2 parent household.

My parents just got divorced last yr. Will it get better?
Divorces are very hard to deal with, depends on the people and the situations that have to be over come, but over time, things can get better when one works hard to leave the past behind and decide to have a better future
We have had abuse torward each other for years (loss of respect) I have been wanting to go to counsling for the last 3 years, she doen’t have time she would say. Well now the court is making her. While going through my counsling and playing all the arguments in my head, to try & figure a way that I should have handled it better. I have really come to the conclusion that everything that she did to start an argument, she did on purpose; and has made me look like a fool. We went to mediation and the mediator put in her notes, that she need to take responsiblity for action in this abusive relationship, our kids saw alot. Now I get blamed for everything, doenst hardly seem fair that if you sit down with your wife and explain to her that when she leaves for school to call you to let you know where the kids are at (never got no calls) or to call you if she would be running late from work or school, so that I have an idea of what I need to prepare for. She always did the opisite on purpose.
Domestic abuse either way is the same thing she just beat u to the station to file it… In my opinion u just need to go cuz u said urself ur kids have seen it and thats so not right NOONE should ever fight in front of their kids cuz kids no matter how small they WILL remember it and I would think ur kids deserve better then that…
I’m sry but if u fight as much as u say u do then nothings gonna help u 2 are just to different, just end it now so u both can be happy and start new lives over..Good luck man
I am just getting everything together to start my divorce. Once I fill out the papers and send them in, how long do I have to wait before the divorce is final?(examples: how long do I have to wait before I can marry again?) Any help would be greatly appreaciated. Thanks
First you have to have been living apart for one year. Then you can officially file for Divorce. The divorce is final approximately 30 days from the date you filed.
The problem a lot of people run into though is when one person either contests it, or keeps changing things in the separation agreement. My boyfriend’s soon-to-be ex keeps thinking of new things to change in the child custody agreement, so he can’t file for divorce until everything is to her liking. It’s also hard to prove to a judge whether the other person is actually unsatisfied with the agreement or is just stalling to be spiteful, which can be very frustrating. Good luck!
