If people want to get married today, divorced the next day and married again the day after.... Why not if they want to?

I'm not suggesting a free for all divorce regime but 4 years is downright cruel!
she became pregnant and when she gave birth (still within the 4 years) her ex husband was, under Irish law, considered the father of the child and even liable for maintenance (which he wasnt happy about!!).
Really the only thing you can't do is remarry. I don't think that's a big deal and I think that it is important that we try to remember that a marriage carries legal ( not to mention moral) rights that can't be entered into or left lightly.
I really don't understand why this isn't a bigger issue?
LOL, not true but funny story.
if you are not in a mad hurry to run out and get married again what difference dose the four years make?
Besides children in a new relationship, presumably as marriage carries tax and inheritance implications you have that hanging over you with someone you no longer wish to be associated with.
And of course the most basic and obvious thing of all, to allow people closure and not feel like their life is on hold waiting to be divorced from their ex.
What difference would it make to have it less than 4 years? What is the 4 years achieving?
What would you cut it to though? A few are sying one or two years, but should the time frame be cut away altogether?

They sound like the sort of people who would not have been much happier if their first grandchild was born to a divorced woman.the biological fathers parents who were very religious were really upset that their first grandchild was conceived in an adulterous relationship and born to a married woman!
And it's the state that is the problem and not the groom's parents? I'm pretty sure that unless the first husband was a non-Catholic heathen, they would not have been allowed to have a church wedding anyway, bump or no bump... Sounds to me like the groom's parents would not have been any happier no matter what the divorce laws allowed.she ended up being pregnant again and walking up the civil ceremony aisle with a bump, once again upsetting the religious parents of the groom who actually considered the marriage 'not real' because it wasnt in a church. Guess you cant please everyone eh?
