Getting a divorce is the only and best solution

When people get married, they often do not realize and understand the challenges they will face in the future, but is divorce court the only solution when marital problems occur? Such challenges can include medical, financial, or psychological problems that surface at some point in a marriage. The question isn`t whether or not we will face stress in a relationship, rather, it`s how we will deal with stress and problems when they knock at our doorstep. Seeking a divorce at the first signs of stress isn`t the only solution, especially if you have realistic expectations at the beginning of a relationship. First of all, when problems arise, the first thing to do is to communicate openly with your partner in a very concerned, non-judgemental way. More problems in a marriage occur because of selfishness than any other factor. Don`t blame one another, but carefully analyze the situation and work together to resolve concerns. Second, because some marital problems arise due to financial problems,create a budget on how you will save and spend your money. Don`t overextend yourself with credit. Only spend what you have rather than using credit cards. Third, consult with a marriage counselor or therapist to help you resolve problems. If people really love each other, they will do whatever it takes to preserve their marriage instead of seeking a quick divorce.

One parent families

One in seven families in Britain are single parent families. There are several different types of the one-parent family. Parents can be on their own because of the death of a partner, divorce, the break-down of live-in relationships, or births outside marriage to single people. Fathers face particular problems as single parents. British society does not expect men to have their working life disrupted by the need to care for a sick child, for example. Men may have to fight for the right to look after their children – the mother is often presumed to have more rights to them. In a majority of one-parent families it is the mother who is the single parent. Women are clearly at a disadvantage in a society where the state assumes a man will be the main breadwinner, and there are few opportunities for lone mothers to earn a good income while continuing to look after their children. A lone parent with a well-paid job may be able to pay for a nanny, but this is rare. Around 70% of lone parents rely on state benefits as their main source of income. Although single-parent families are now accepted by society, the majority view is that two parents are almost essential for the stable upbringing of a child, as children need role models of both sexes.

British admission procedures

Students are admitted to British Universities largely on the basis of their performance in the examinations for the General Certificate of Education at ordinary and advanced level. The selection procedures rather complicated. A student who wants to go to university applies for admission before he takes his advanced level examinations. First of all he must write to the Universities Central on Admissions and they send him a form which he has to complete. On this form he has to write down the names of six universities in order preference. He may put down only two or three names stating that if not accepted by these universities he could be willing to go to any other. This form together with an account of his out-of-school activities, and two references, one of which must be from the headteacher of his school is then sent back to the UCCA. The UCCA sends photocopies of the form to the universities concerned. Each applicant is first considered by the university admission board. In some cases the board sends the applicant refusal. This may happen for example if the board receives a form in which their university admission officer passes the candidate`s papers on to the academic department concerned. One or two members of his department will then look at the candidate`s application:see what he says about himself, look at his marks at the ordinary level examinations, see what his head teacher and other referee say about him. On the basis of this, the department may make the candidate an offer or send him a definite rejection. As a rule the department makes a conditional offer. This means that the candidate will be accepted by the university if he fulfils the requirements stated in the offer. In his turn the student may accept the offer conditionally. When the Advanced level examination results come out in August the university admissions department sees whether the candidate has fulfilled his conditions and if he sends him a definite offer. The candidate must accept or refuse within 72 hours
