Lastly, it will increase the peoples immorality and cases of marital infidelity. If this law is passed and divorce will become legal, it will give a message to our countrymen of a broken family being normal; that a divorce is normal. This implies that anyone can marry and get out of that marriage if they want, which defeats its very purpose. From these assumptions, individuals will start disregarding morals when it comes to choosing a partner. Furthermore, with the legality of divorce being existent, the concept of premarital sex being bad will start fading out. If divorce is legal, an individual may marry again after the separation, which implies that that person will have intercourse with more than one person. This means serious problems in STDs and if applicable, the legitimacy of children which have a common father and different mothers, and vice versa. It should be reiterated, in this case, that marriage is a lifelong decision which should be given tremendous consideration. Our morals and values should not be sacrificed for a better economy. However bad our situation may be as a country, we should stay morally at peace and hardworking to achieve what we want. Instead of passing divorce in this law, other aspects in our countrys society should be given focus on in order to help our nation become better and develop into a country with potential to become great. Our government should start with improving the basic needs of the community so it may grow. Our education, if given more attention, will empower our youth in creating change and contributing to our society. More livelihood programs will help give economic and financial progress to our barangays. Improved healthcare will ensure that everyone will be taken care of, no matter what their social standing may be. In family problems, counseling programs may be implemented in order to assure a stronger sense of relationship in the nuclear family, and avoid problems like infidelity. Divorce is not necessary in our country just because more and more couples are not satisfied with their relationship. We should instill values in our families to ensure that a bright future will the future generations which will come after our own, and preserve the dignity of the Filipino family.
