Yup, nobody does it better than Massachusetts. Makes me feel sad for the rest. Lowest divorce rate in the country. (Aside: Did you know there was a "Divorce Magazine"? Me neither.)

Let's be proud of this, since while it may be partly coincidental, it may also be related to certain factors like education level and marriage age, which are related to our state's relative liberalism. In other words, maybe marriages are more likely to be permanent in a culture where people are expected to be fully developed adults before they make a huge life decision. I hope this is the case.

We got your family values right here, pal.

(Further aside: Why not extend that low divorce rate to our gay and lesbian neighbors in the Bay State? Do children in gay and lesbian families deserve less protection than those of straight families?)
