"Divorce isn't hereditary." It's quite funny, you say that, actually, Seeing as it seems to be in my family. For a matter of fact, It seems to be in many families. Yes, technically speaking, Divorce is not a hereditary disease, But for all intents and purposes, It can be hereditary. Not because it's something you can catch, But because the children grow up And they think this is the way love is. And they look around them, Their friends all have divorced parents too, So their thoughts are enforced. It's a little funny, Everyone is so obsessed with true love, When it doesn't seem to really exist anymore. At least not here.

A Word on Divorces
