James Sexton: 我从事离婚律师工作23年,我的观点是,许多婚姻失败的原因在于人们之间的疏离。这种疏离并非突然发生,而是由许多小的裂痕逐渐累积而成。最终导致婚姻破裂的事件,例如婚外情或财务纠纷,往往只是压垮骆驼的最后一根稻草。解决问题的关键在于,即使面对困难和不愉快,也要及时沟通,做出正确的选择,维护彼此之间的联系。 在处理离婚案件的过程中,我发现许多夫妻在婚姻中缺乏坦诚沟通,导致彼此之间产生隔阂。他们不愿意面对问题,也不愿意为维护关系付出努力。此外,社交媒体和科技的进步也使得不忠更容易发生,因为人们更容易与其他人建立联系。 关于子女抚养问题,我认为父母间的冲突对孩子有害。但是,即使父母分开,只要他们能有效沟通并共同抚养孩子,也能为孩子创造良好的成长环境。父母不应对孩子进行情感操控或贬低另一方,而应该积极地支持彼此与孩子的关系。 婚前协议能够在一定程度上保护个人财产和财务。签订婚前协议应该是一个坦诚的对话,表达对伴侣的爱和承诺,而不是对未来的恐惧。婚前协议的最佳结构是简单明了,将财产明确地分为“我的”、“你的”和“我们的”。即使有婚前协议,夫妻也需要持续沟通,尤其是在财务方面。 离婚方式的选择会影响结果,从简单的协商到复杂的诉讼,选择适合的方式至关重要。作为一名离婚律师,我处理过各种各样的离婚案件,其中一些案件非常复杂或荒谬,也有一些案件让我感到非常痛苦。 尽管每天都接触到婚姻破裂的案例,但我仍然相信爱情的价值。婚姻关系应该被视为人生旅程中的一个阶段,即使关系结束,也应该以积极的态度面对。 Chris: (访谈者,问题引导和总结)

Is there ever a time where a different approach, of divorce, or avoiding marriage entirely, is actually the right decision.

Expect to learn why so many marriages are failing today, whether prenups actually work, if it's men or women who struggle the most after a divorce, what the most common disagreements are during divorce proceedings, whether marriage is still a useful institution, the best predictors of a declining relationship and much more…
