8. Improved standards of health mean that it is no longer necessary to have
many children in order that a few may survive.
Since we now expect more from marriage and because of what some peo-
ple consider is the increased stress of modern family life, marriages fail more
often than they did in the past. People are also living a great deal longer, so they
have to be able to
put up with each other for a longer period. Shorter working
hours and longer holidays also increase the amount of time married couples
spent together and increase the possibility of friction.
Certainly divorce has become increasingly easy. In 1857 a divorce was
only possible
by means of a private act of Parliament; by 1971 anyone could ob-
tain a divorce providing they could prove that their marriage had broken down
to a point at which it would be impossible to rebuild the relationship.
Some people see more divorce as a sign of the breakdown of our present
family system, but between two- thirds and three- quarters of all divorcees re-
marry, so there doesn’t appear to be a general movement away from the idea of
marriage and family.
