Does the sharp drop in divorce rate mean that everyone's happiness index has rebounded?

I don't think the sharp drop in divorce rate means that everyone's happiness index has rebounded. The reason why the divorce rate in China dropped sharply last year is mainly due to the following reasons: First, the marriage rate is small, and the divorce rate naturally decreases; Second, the introduction of the cooling-off period for divorce has indeed played a certain role in preventing divorce; Third, many families suspend divorce for children and the elderly, which does not mean that everyone's happiness index has improved. Next, let's analyze it in detail.

I think the divorce rate must be combined with the marriage rate. If the marriage rate is greatly reduced, the divorce rate will certainly not increase, because there are not so many people getting married, how can we get divorced? Therefore, it is not correct to look at whether everyone's happiness index is rising simply by the sharp drop in divorce rate. In fact, many people never get married all their lives and have been living a love-like life with their lovers. Their happiness index is not necessarily low, and they will feel very happy. Now the marriage rate is really low, so the divorce rate is relatively low. This is a normal phenomenon, and it doesn't have to rise to the recovery of happiness index.

Of course, the divorce rate in China dropped sharply last year, which is also closely related to the introduction of the cooling-off period for divorce. The introduction of this policy has indeed played a certain role in preventing divorce. Many people may divorce for impulsive purposes, so there is no need to be calm. This is not to say that the happiness index has improved, but that everyone has calmed down and continued to live step by step.

Even if many couples don't divorce, it doesn't mean they are happy. Many people have lived all their lives for their children and the elderly, and dare not divorce, because they are afraid that the elderly will be sad and the children will not have a complete family. Therefore, although the divorce rate is declining now, it does not mean that everyone's happiness index has rebounded, because many people can't help living a dull or even unhappy life and dare not divorce.
