Our link to the blog: http://www.susieandotto.com/divorce/
Our blog is from susieandotto.com and is a love and relationship advice blog. It covers a wide range of categories but we are focusing specifically on the topic of divorce. This source takes on the rhetoric of love in pop culture because many people today are in love, and get married, but are not prepared for the problems they face in the marriage. We are focusing on the breakdown of love, and the troubles and difficulties of love.
The blog helps people who have been through a bad break up, divorce, or relationships heal. It also helps married people look at their relationship and gives them advice for fixing problems or worries in their relationship. The blog helps people figure out if they should leave a relationship or if they should try to work on it.
The authors of the blog are a married couple, Susie and Otto Collins. They are relationship coaches as well as life partners. It is interesting because both partners in the marriage are giving the advice together, rather than just the man or the women giving advise.
This source was found through google. A site was found which gave the top ten blog sites for women. We thought this blog looked interesting and choose it as our source. While it was on a site which gave the top ten blog sites for women this blog is targeted toward both men and women.
Some questions to consider are:
„ What are your views about divorce in society today?
„ If one cheats on their partner in a relationship, do you feel they should stay together?
„ How has the view of marriage changed over time?
„ Do people have a different perception of love in todays society than people in the past have?
„ Why do you think divorce rates have went up in recent times?
„ Do you feel that a marriage can be saved?
„ Do you agree with the advice their giving?
„ Do any articles stand out to you? Why?
Keep in mind to post pone judgment until the end and to read through everything first. Also keep in mind that they are mainly writing to an audience who is having relationship troubles, or who has gone through a divorce or bad breakup.
