"Every cloud has its silver lining...?" Finding an excuse - company providing opportunity to couples to escape from family responsibility and making profits, selfish business & irresponsible society.

Maybe it's the focus on a civil divorce, without acrimony, that's the key here - the desire to move on without bitterness or regret.

Seeing so many losing their loved ones and the danger of March 11 made some people value work more than their family? What a load of rubbish.
