Divorce In The Philippines


Recommended Posts

Agree, why live together kung makikita lang naman ng mga anak nio na palaging nag-aaway ang family.. mas magsuffer lang cla ng ganun.. better settle it nalang and let them choose rather than letting them see you everyday arguing.. but shempre kung pwede pa naman maayos at maremedyuhan like lay low ng konti.. mas ok yun dahil sabi nga nila mas maganda pa din kung "BUO ang Pamilya"

At the present time, I am happy with the legal separation idea. It gives you time and your partner to analyze your relationship and the reason for the separation. Sa divorce, if you just want to divorce you do it so as long as you both agree. Yes, there may be legal grounds for divorce but the separation is much faster that the legal separation thing. No more time to analyze your true feelings. Also with divorce, the effect on our moral fiber as a people would seriously deteriorate. Let us make it hard for two people to separate so they twice before they get married on the first place. The children protected din.

We already have legal separation and annulment. What's the market for divorce?

What's the purpose of legal separation when you can't dissolve your marriage? As far as annulment, I think it's a farce. Kalokohan lang dahil meron mga nagpapa-annul after 3 or more kids...

 

Girls nga talo sa annulment. Kasi if the marriage was invalid in the first place, then the guy doesn't need to support the girl. Unlike sa divorce, you still have alimony.

 

Kung ayaw nyo, better for guys. Kaya nga di ito magkakaroon dahil mas konti ang susuportahan sa annulment eh (kids lang) compared to divorce.

well.. my point is not in the alimony issue or support... i am referring to a review of a relationship prior to final separation...

 

with regards to the alimony or child support... i would support expansion in the legal structure of annulment and legal separation to get a more fair distribution of responsibilities for all sexes... the children should not be made to suffer...

I strongly support the legalization of divorce in the Philippines primarily for the above-stated objective.

 

Given my quite limited knowledge of the law, in my opinion, the current provisions on legal separation and annulment are not robust enough to guarantee that this objective will be attained. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong here.

Legal separation and annulment is a mere mockery of marriage itself

while to me Divorce is a complimentary package to it.

 

A marriage contract is a legal binding contract, the uniqueness of it compared to other

contracts is that it is perpetual, as if nothing ends in this world.

 

A contract must have

-------------------------

Term

Renewal mechanism

Termination mechanism

Wouldn't a Legal Separation be considered an "escape clause" then? :cool:

Negative to that, because you will not be able still to engage in a new contract.

I will not call that escape.

 

True ... what about Annulment as the escape clause, it does give the ability to enter into a new contract.

 

Though honestly, some people are really weird about these things. My idiot brother, after having his marriage annuled, two years later, remarried his ex-wife.

Annulment is based on the premise that a/the defect was PRIOR to the engagment of the contract thus making it NULL and VOID.

 

Divorce will perhaps embody much of the defects - prior/current/imminent/potential/consumated

Divorce will be a mechanism for dissoluton for parties that once agreed to the contract.

A cost-effective and hassle-free dissolution

 

Dont get me wrong, i believe to the sancity of one, i still advocate the value of such - trust, respect, submission, faith - In this manner we may then refer such to below posted ...

In short all those who want to get into a contract so be it .... those who bind their relationship on the context of love, trust etc ... then just get on with it ....

 

The government should get out of the business of marriage.

Marriage should have NEVER been a government's undertaking.

The problem with the government or any government's idea of a marriage contract is that it is a moving target, always changing with the times, with the whims of each congressman, senator or president.

What kind of a contract is that if it keeps changing as times go by?

Good grief!  Would you sign such a contract?

Give me a break!

 

Each to his own contract.

I say each to his own religious ceremony ONLY.

Never sign up with any government sanctioned marriage!!!

I do agree with divorce BUT ang dowside nito is mas magkakaroon ng maraming broken families kase mas malakas ang loob ng mga tao magpakasal then pag ayaw na divorce agad. yes the process is not that easy pero ganoon pa rin yun mas malakas ang tao magpakasal then after mag divorce na lang.
