Problem
Write long word reply to the following question:
A recent AARP study found that the reasons for divorces at midlife and beyond are:
• Abusive marriages
• Alcohol or drug abuse
• Cheating
• Falling out of love
• Different values and lifestyles
• Being a control freak
• Money problems
• Not carrying their weight in the marriage
• Falling in love with someone else
• Abandonment
First, re-order the list above with what you believe the most common reasons for divorce are at the top, to the least common reasons at the bottom. Second, imagine that a friend is currently in a marriage with one of the top three items in your re-ordered list, and was on the fence as to whether to divorce or not. Describe the advice you might give your friend, and why you decided on this advice. Be sure to clearly state whether you believe your friend's marriage is salvageable or not, and why.
