Scandinavia: Can The New "Parental Team" Replace Marriage?

It makes no difference who initiated the divorce. Thus, a mother who is abandoned by her husband for any reason generally will be required to accept separation from her children as well, one week at the time, every second week. Following Swedish ideals of absolute gender equality, the policy is applied in a sex-symmetrical fashion (though older children have a legal right to weigh in on the decision).

This may sound bad to Tradcons, but it is an improvement on the present American system, which attacks and assails men with the full weight of the law. The only present solution in the United States it not getting married.

“We all know the statistics: Children of divorced or separated parents underperform in school, are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol, and have lower social mobility.”

Perhaps that’s because the mother mainly gets custody and they lack a father?

Before you read this and think "sounds fair", let me highlight one critical sentence:

Joint physical custody .... unless there is suspicion of abuse

Note that only the suspicion of abuse is enough to lose custody, and as we all know it is only women who can claim abuse and women are always believed - especially in Sweden.

In conclusion: joint custody only applies if the woman permits it by not making a vague abuse claim.

Co-parenting or JPC is a workable solution. Not ideal, but workable. Toddlers will still need their mom more, while teenagers need the strictness that a dad is better suited to provide, hence splitting time 50/50 from 0 to 18 years might not be best solution, but usually divorces happen when the kids are a bit older and mommy wants to ride the cock carousel again.

Marriage hasn't been about children for a long time now. Marriage is a legal thing. It's about money. Children are separate.

If you have children in wedlock then get divorced, then as part of the divorce court proceeding, you decide child support and custody.

If you have children out of wedlock, you have a court proceeding to decide child support and custody as long as someone initiates a court proceeding.

Same result. Marriage isn't about the children. You have a court proceeding to decide child support and custody whether or not you were married. Just with a few logistical differences.

Marriage is about becoming a legal entity for tax purposes, some insurance reasons, some trust/estate reasons when you die. And divorce is about deciding who owns what and who gets paid what for how long when you split up. Marriage and divorce are all about money.

Something akin to a "Parental Team" replacing marriage requires a big social shift where having kids with your boyfriend out of marriage becomes the norm, and getting married becomes a throwback for conservative stodgy old farts who love Jesus. I think we have a loooong way to go socially before we see anything like that in the US.

In a way, it is an improvement to the previous system which destroyed the man while benefitting the woman.

The underlying problem though remain, in a way it is even stronger: now neither side has any benefit to start the marriage. It is also underlying how a parent is, after all, replaceable by either the state of a step-parent, and considering how expensive and tiring being a parent is, it will certainly act as an incentive not to have kids.

.....meh, who cares. I'll enjoy the decline. This problem will eventually correct itself, one way or another.

Here is my non-lawyer advice regarding women: DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING.

Hate speechers made a crime not to address LGBT the way they want to be addressed, with the pronouns they choose, but also mothers no more have right to be called "mother", and fathers have no more right to be called "father", all to privilege the childish immature caprice of the LGBT haters.
