Hey that reminds me of a marriage arguement from a while back.
I think you might be on to something, but I would change it slightly.
Anyone who gets married should do so with the intent of having kids. If you don't have kids you get to raise one. That way people will get married for the purpose of having kids, and people will think twice before getting married because there would be more serious repercussions to doing something they haven't thought out.
Might avoid a lot year long marriages that way.
EXCUSE ME???????????
Well, why get into a binding contract just because you love each other?
If you are in love just be in love. Why do you need marriage for that?
If you are going to raise kids, that is more serious. That's where you need a contract, a serious legal commitment.
It comes in handy too when you start a business together, or buy a house, or save the hassle from ex-partners...
Kids are not the only reason people marry for...
Hell, who is gonna decide WHY I want to get married??
What an arrogance! It is none of anyones business why I want to get married or not!
Why do you need a marriage to raise kids together? Who is anyone to tell me why I should get married or not? Why can't my marriage break down over something that might or might not have to do with having kids? Why would I only be married if I had the intention to raise children? Who is gonna check?
If I choose to get married, that is MY (and my partners) decision only. Hell, next time I know someone (besides my partner

) is gonna tell me what I can or can't do in my bedroom!
