How should you get your parents to love each other?
A child don't need to do anything to make a parent love them. If you don't get along right now it does not mean they don't love you. In some cases the parent went through a trauma or something there can be difficulties to show love or sometimes feel it but that is nothing the child can do something about. It's very sad when that happens and the child does suffer. If you feel this way and can't speak to your parents I suggest you go to teenlineonline.org where you can speak to other teens about anything that bothers you. It's a really good site and people there listen and share their stories. And I don't think you have to be a teen to go there.

What are the different types of divorce?
As of 2019, there are several different terms used to describe divorce. These "types" are legal distinctions that describe the processes of getting a divorce and methods of dividing up a couple's assets, but they ultimately have the same result—in the eyes of the law, a divorce is a divorce
Remember, if you're considering any type of divorce, you should speak with a qualified attorney as soon as possible. This answer is not intended to be legal advice.
Nonetheless, here are the different types of divorce:
Fault Divorce - This occurs when one of the spouses requests the divorce on the grounds that the other party is at fault; they've committed some type of demonstrable act that has done irreparable damage to the marriage. The typical grounds for fault divorces include cruelty, desertion, adultery, and confinement in prison for a set number of years.
Other grounds may be available for a fault divorce, depending on the state (marriage and divorce law is mostly handled at the state level, so if you're considering any type of divorce whatsoever, contact a qualified attorney to discuss your options).
Generally, in a fault divorce, the spouse who is at fault will receive a smaller share of the marital assets and alimony, although this isn't always the case. Some states do not allow fault divorces.
No-Fault Divorce - In a no-fault divorce, the person filing for divorce has no obligation to prove that their spouse did something wrong. The person needs to state a reason for divorce, but that reason can be as simple as "irreconcilable differences" or "incompatibility." Basically, if you can't get along with your spouse, you're eligible for a no-fault divorce in most states, and you don't need to provide evidence to get the divorce granted.
Every state offers no-fault divorces. In some states, spouses must live apart for a set period (usually several months) before they're granted a no-fault divorce; to avoid this waiting period, some people might elect to pursue a fault divorce.
Contested/Uncontested Divorce - A contested divorce occurs when the parties cannot agree on either the terms of the divorce or the divorce itself. A court must rule on the contested issues.
In an uncontested divorce, the court doesn't get involved (except to validate and record the divorce). The spouses agree on things like assets, alimony, child support, and debt allocation. By avoiding court, the parties involved generally save money on legal fees, and they're able to get their divorce fairly quickly.
So, how do couples come to these types of agreements?
Collaborative Divorce - In a collaborative divorce, both parties work through an established process through the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals. Each person has legal representation to help them understand the issues involved and to help them come to agreements on issues that would otherwise cause a contested divorce. The parties also meet with experts, like financial professionals and child specialists, to make sure the people divorcing are fully informed. Everyone involved, including the attorneys, promise not to go to court, ensuring that the sole focus is on coming to an agreement.
In other words, the parties disagree on some terms, but agree to go through a process to come to an agreement. The goal of collaborative divorce is to get an uncontested divorce that won't go to court (thereby avoiding significant expenses).
Mediated Divorce - Mediated divorce is similar to collaborative divorce, as it's a process for getting an agreement and avoiding court. One main difference is that while the collaborative process necessitates specially trained attorneys, mediation sessions typically only involve the divorcing couple and the mediator—no lawyers.
Mediation usually happens in a conference room, and the mediator first works to establish a dialogue and find common ground between the parties. Each party speaks with the mediator directly, and the mediator is responsible for communicating information and moving the divorce toward a resolution. This is in contrast to a collaborative divorce, where both parties' legal teams work directly with one another.
To a layman, the differences between a mediated divorce and a collaborative divorce seem minor, but the processes are entirely different. Again, if you're considering either option, speak with a family law attorney who has relevant experience in your state.
Arbitrated Divorce - When the parties in a divorce reach a total impasse, they may bring their case before an arbitrator. The arbitrator will listen to arguments from both parties and render a decision. Both parties abide by the arbitrator's decision, whether or not they personally agree with it.
In a sense, the arbitrator acts as a private court—the arbitrator’s decisions are binding. Unlike in a court case, neither party can appeal. Arbitration can help to prevent a divorce from going to court, and it can save time and money.
Summary Divorce - Some states offer summary divorces, which are a somewhat simplified version of a traditional divorce. These are designed for couples who were married for a short time and have limited shared assets. In most states, summary divorces are available if:
- The marriage lasted for less than five years
- The couple does not own real estate together
- Each person gives up their right to alimony
- The couple does not have children, or have come to an agreement regarding custody and child support
- The couple does not have a large amount of shared debt
The exact requirements of a summary divorce vary from state to state.
Those are the different types of divorce—or at least the legal distinctions that separate one divorce from another. Some websites also describe "same-sex divorce" as a separate type. However, on June 26, 2015, the United States Supreme Court struck down state bans on same-sex marriage, so today, there's no need to make that distinction.
What atheists think of divorce?
Divorce happens. The laws are secular for divorce, as well as any thing else.
How does joint custody affect children?
Opinions from contributors:
The critical factor appears to be conflict between parents. With relatively little conflict between parents, joint custody is associated with better outcomes for children.
Joint custody is not all as pleasant as it seems. Some kids don't really care, but for kids like me who are use to being around both of my parents it is really hard to deal with. I am 17 and my parents got a divorce about 2 years ago. Since then I hardly ever see my dad even though my parents have joint custody. If my mom gets mad at my dad then she won't let us (my little sister, little brother,and me) go and spend time with him. She says that she only does it because she wants to make sure that he doesn't try to hurt us in any way, but I don't think that is the case. This also goes the same for my dad. If he gets mad at my mom he won't spend time with us he will just make up excuses. He does it to try and hurt my moms feelings but he is really hurting us. Going from one house to another is not fun either. Because you have to let your friends or any one wants to see you who house your staying at and that is a pain in the butt. So all these experts think they know every thing but they don't because half of them have never been in a situation like us kids have to go through.
It is easy to find research supporting both sides of this question. Joint custody (50/50) sounds great in theory but is difficult and often harmful to the child. Living in two different places makes it difficult for the child to find the stability they need. Where do they call home? It also takes two parents working together 100% of the time to establish consistent rules, moral values, and even things as simple as bedtimes. True joint custody may be appropriate in those cases where the parents stay good friends and divorce on good terms. In my case, my wife left the kids and I for a much younger lifestyle that is not kid friendly. I am so thankful I was awarded primary physical custody. Joint custody would not be in the best interest of the kids. I find it hard enough to deal with my ex-wife allowing our 4 and 8 year old stay up past midnight, watching R-rated movies with them, and trying to be more of a cool friend than a mom. It would be so much worse if custody was on a 50/50 basis.
Joint custody is the ideal when it is amicable. If all parents would behave in the way a responsible adult should, it would be a much happier and peaceful environment for children who have no choice in the matter.

Do you have to be divorced to get child support?
No. Parents have a legal obligation to care for their children, and that certainly includes financial support. If one parent leaves the household and stops acting as the custodial guardian of their children, the custodial parent can file for child support, regardless of marital status.
With that said, laws vary greatly from state to state, and if you’re considering a child support case, you should speak with your attorney to make sure you understand your rights and obligations. This is especially important if you’re planning on sharing custody of your child or children with your ex-partner.
With that said, here are a few important things to keep in mind. Note that this is an overview, and no part of this answer is intended as legal advice.
- Parents can file for child support as soon as it is necessary. The party with custody of the child (or children) is entitled to reasonable support from the non-custodial parent. To receive that support, they must file with a state child support agency.
Contacting a state agency is often a fairly simple process, and for the most part, the agency handles much of the legwork. In Illinois, for instance, the Department of Healthcare and Family Services will search for the non-custodial parent, establish paternity, and obtain and enforce the child support order. The custodial parent simply needs to complete an online application form.
Note that child support is typically prospective. That means that it’s not retroactive to the date it was issued—the sooner the custodial parent files, the sooner they can receive reasonable child support. For most custodial parents, the safest course of action is to apply for child support right away (but, again, consult an attorney). - If parents share custody, the situation can be more complicated. A court will typically determine child support based on income disparity between the partners, parenting time schedules, and other factors. If, for example, both parents have similar incomes and they spend a similar amount of time with the child, the court might not grant child support to either of them.
If you don’t have information about the other parent’s income, don’t worry—the court will request that information and make a fair determination. - A divorce or separation does not change parents' obligations. However, the final terms of a divorce may change child support amounts. For instance, the divorce court may make important determinations for custody and visitation.
As such, a court may grant a temporary child support order (a 'pendente lite" order) while a divorce or custody case proceeds. Custodial parents may have to file a pendente lite motion to receive this type of child support order.
Child support payments can also change if either parents' financial circumstances change. This is typically accomplished by a Motion to Modify Child Support Order. When considering a temporary or permanent child support modification, courts evaluate changes in parental income, marital status, and the child’s financial need. - The other parent’s visitation rights are not affected by child support payments. In other words, you can't prevent the other parent from visiting the child because they haven’t made child support payments on time.
To file for child support, look up the requirements for your state. Many states have online applications to make the process easier.
If you'd prefer not to apply online, contact a child support agency in your area. Be prepared to provide relevant documentation supporting your claim, and remember, if you're involved in a custody dispute or divorce, you should seek advice from a qualified attorney working in your state where the divorce has been filed.
