I was surprised to read in the link that Utah has a slightly higher divorce rate than nationally.

I'm a big believer in premarital education classes and counseling. That would have to be cheaper than divorce.

"Six states [not including Utah] have passed legislation encouraging engaged couples to participate in formal premarital education – education or counseling for engaged couples to explore relationship strengths and weaknesses and learn what it takes to have a successful marriage."
