1. To all the Alta Kackers out there

Go ahead get rid of the old lady and hook yourself up with a young Philipina...Just make sure you have enough money to pay off the ex, and to suppot the Philipina once she tells you about her kids in the PHILIppines and that she still has a husband back there as there is no divorce in the Philippines. Them Philipinas sure know how to handle a man. (Rather screw them over) Ha Ha Ha Ha
2. #1 is nuts - We women are throwing out jerks like you!
Mamalama ,   Israel   (04.19.07)
3. Divorce and solution
Daniel ,   Rechovot, Israel   (04.19.07)
Wonderful and what pray tell are our therapists and Rabbis doing about it? They are part of the problem. The therapists takes the money and then says, :oh get divorced." The rabbi is silent and buries his head in his Talmud. No wonder articles like this need to be written.
4. #2 Get a brain my post was sarcasm
Al   (04.19.07)
Oh I forget you burned your bra like 30 years back and you're wondering why your droopy...... Let me guess!
5. Jewish family laws
Lee ,   New York   (04.20.07)
It's not surprising that mostly secularized Israel has such a high divorce rate--the mores of hedonism encourage one to seek instant gratification, 'the grass is always greener on the other side', etc. I wonder, however, if those who keep taharat ha'mishpacha [Jewish family laws of purity; see www.yoatzot.org for details] have a much lower divorce rate, as I suspect.
6. EHUD BARAK
eLI h ,   ISRAEL   (04.20.07)
WHY IS THERE A PICTURE OF EHUD BARAK THERE??????

8. To # 5
Rachel ,   Jerusalem   (05.05.07)
The pattern is the same in religious circles as well, at least in the Modern and Dati Leumi ones. Men become available again at around 45-50. After 20 years of marriage, with the kids almost grown, people want to do phase 2 with someone new - and it is the women who instigate the divorce more than men do.
9. Not Just Jews, Not Just Israel
Dorothy Friend ,   Tel Aviv   (05.13.07)
A 90-year-old couple walked into their attorney’s office and announced that they wanted to file for a divorce after 70 years of marriage. “But you lasted this long,” said their surprised attorney. Why divorce NOW?” The couple flatly responded, “We were waiting for the kids to die."
10. Divorce statistics
Dan ,   Somewhere in Israel   (06.12.07)
Some of your findings are correct while others are misrepresentations of the facts. You neglected to mention mention those who marry late in life and don't understand relationships, therapists who fail in their tasks, and the quick fix generation. Also you omit the statistics in the religious community.
