Reply To: “Marriage counseling hastens divorce far more often than it saves a marriage”

I don’t mean for this to sound preachy, but when we criticize divorce to the extent that we portray it as some foolish, impulsive act that solves little and causes more suffering than it alleviates, aren’t we forgetting that it’s actually a mitzvas asei in the Torah?

I’m not at all suggesting being cavalier about it and encouraging people to jump at the chance just to be mekayim a mitzvah, r”l. But, we ought not look at it as some modern-day corruption that resembles an aveira either.
