Fake what?
You've advocating keeping parents together if they're unhappy in a marriage. In other words, faking a loving household.

No, I am advocating married people provide a real loving household...love is a verb. It's called upholding their vows. They put "through sickness and health," "for better and worse," "for richer or poorer" in there for a reason. Everyone but little girls who watch princess movies knows you ain't gonna feel "happily ever after" 24/7...but you promise to keep on loving them despite that.
One is incapable of falling out of love? Can't provide a loving household if the heart is not in it. Irreparable marriages can and do exist.
Of course, when they stop the loving action the feelings die, but they can return...otherwise there would be no need for marriage therapists.
It ain't "can't" it is more about "don't want to."
So you think all marriages are reparable?
EDIT: You also seem to think it's easy to "love." Sounds like you could love anything, and thus marry anything.
No. Good reasons for divorce include addictions, abuse, or an affair.
My own feelings of love are based on respect and admiration. I couldn't marry someone of different religious or political beliefs.
And if the two stop liking each other? No addictions, abuse, or affair. One loses respect and/or admiration or both do. This lasts years, including their children's most formative years. That's somehow more healthy for the children for the parents to stay in the marriage rather than cut it?
I would say yes it is more beneficial for the children to have an intact home as long as the parents stop warring and just get along for the kids.
So, like I said, faking it. Either lie to the kids or guilt the kids.
Be Nice. It ain't that hard.
That's the foundation of a marriage? "Be nice?"
That's the foundation for staying together for the kids, if you've stopped liking the person you made vows with.
So you think that this relationship, one that's based on lies and fraudulence,
Being nice ain't fraud or lying.
