  'Til 2013 do us part? Mexico mulls 2-year marriage   MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico City lawmakers want to help newlyweds avoid the hassle of divorce by giving them an easy exit strategy: temporary marriage licenses. Leftists in the city's assembly -- who have already riled conservatives by legalizing gay marriage -- proposed a reform to the civil code this week that would allow couples to decide on the length of their commitment, opting out of a lifetime. The minimum marriage contract would be for two years and could be renewed if the couple stays happy. The contracts would include provisions on how children and property would be handled if the couple splits. The proposal is, when the two-year period is up, if the relationship is not stable or harmonious, the contract simply ends, said Leonel Luna , the Mexico City assemblyman who co-authored the bill. You wouldn't have to go through the tortuous process of divorce, said Luna, from the leftist Party of the Democratic Revolution , which has the most seats in the 66-member chamber. Luna says the proposed law is gaining support and he expects a vote by the end of this year. Around half of Mexico City marriages end in divorce, usually in the first two years.

I wonder how many people would go for this ........ all over the world? Going through a divorce that involve children and the splitting of assets and alimony and child support and, and, and .... can be quite ugly. For those reasons alone, I will never get married again. Ever! I understand the sanctity of marriage and all but really, in today's world, it's just not the same anymore as it was when marriages did last a lifetime.
