Stumble It!
This is a very interesting collection of articles. I suppose there’s a chance that it hasn’t gotten much attention because people aren’t putting in the effort to read them all. Could be that a better approach would be to submit them individually to MND as suggested links.
Wow – one journalist celebrates that in a relatively small group (married in late 1970s), more than half the marriages survived – 53%. Gee (he says sarcastically), I guess the problem of a high divorce rate really is a myth!
Child support enforcement making it easier for custodial parents to get child support payments, with debit cards etc.? Back in the olden days when there was no CSE acting as middle-man it was really easy. The NCP sent it directly to the CP.
It’s a well-selected group of articles; suggested reading for every policy wonk interested in family policy related debate and formulating reasons for change.
