Then pick your bride carefully, and stay married to her.

Time after time in this society, people hold big heavy buckets of liquid manure over their heads and pour it out on top of themselves, and then whine that gravity did it to them.

Precisely.

In many of these cases, though, it isn't the man's fault at all. They married with him acting in good faith, she got a wild hair (or already had one), she walked out, she got the kids and a piece of his money, commonly far greater than the old fault-divorce alimony, and she does not even need to show she SPENDS the support on the kids. Alley cats who thought they could get away with a one night stand should pay, but in many other cases the law itself is seriously screwed.
