[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's obviously really bad for society in many ways- bad for families, bad for the children involved, bad for the second set of kids, just generally destructive of family life.  It also messes with the dating pool and is damaging for women in general.

So I'm not sure why it's not more openly condemned or talked about. I guess since most media and public outlets are controlled by older men.

It's interesting to me that with all the talk about traditional families and conservative culture now, people don't talk about this more.  Maybe young conservative women are content to marry middle-aged men on their second or third families?  But men leaving their families to start a second family is pretty high on the list of societal dysfunction.  [/quote]

It is not talked about for several reasons. The first of which is that our society prioritizes freedom and choice above almost all else, especially responsibility and tradition. The second of which is that the concept that marriage is between one man and one woman is also viewed as outdated, old-fashioned, and an outdated relic of Christian morality. The third of which is that it is a currently popular espoused belief among elites that all different types of family structures are equally good for raising children. [/quote]

It would be better for kids if poly marriages were legalized and men allowed to host 2 families in the same house. And obligated to take care of kids (minimum college costs, as in Germany for example). [/quote]

Doesn’t Germany pay for college?   [/quote]

College is free but parents must cover living expenses of young adults up to the highest level of education achieved by the parents. Eg if exH has a grad degree and kids want to get there, the father has to support them in grad school [/quote]
