Week 13 Divorce

Do you think that divorce is a good option? Lets look at some interesting stats...

• 2 yrs after divorce about 70% of people surveyed said they could have and should saved their marriage. 
• In a study that was done where people were given a scale to measure their satisfaction in marriage. This scale was: very satisfied, satisfied, somewhat satisfied, dissatisfied, and very dissatisfied. Those who marked "dissatisfied" or "very dissatisfied" were surveyed again five years later. Those who stuck it out marked "very satisfied" and "satisfied". 

Statistics show that it is actually better to try to fix it because you'll probably be happier in the end! Who would have thought that?

Did you know....
....that remarriages are actually more vulnerable than first marriages?
...that the majority of couples who deal with affairs stay together and are happy that they did?
...divorce costs a lot? In California, at least at one time, it was about $25,000! And the financial struggles don't stop there!
...women are less likely to remarry rapidly and about 70% of men who have divorced are married about 2 years later?
...that people with divorced parents are more likely to divorce also?
...divorce can be VERY hard on the kids and cause a lot of problems?

Before considering divorce think about all that comes with it. Sadly your problems will not end, but you will have a bunch of new ones if you divorce. Because of this maybe consider trying to fix your marriage.
