Causes Of Divorce by collinsnaira(m): 8:30pm On Jul 25, 2015
An annual study by management consultants Grant Thornton, in the work of Fagan and Patrick (2005) estimates the main proximal causes of divorce based on surveys of matrimonial lawyers. The main causes in 2004 were:
• Adultery; Extramarital sex; Infidelity - 27%
• Domestic violence - 17%
• Midlife crisis - 13%
• Addictions, e.g. alcoholism and gambling - 6%
• Workaholism - 6%
• The problem of finance
• Sexual problem:
• Immaturity
• Intrusion of in-laws
According to this survey, husbands engaged in extramarital affairs in 75% of cases; wives in 25%. In cases of family strain, wives' families were the primary source of strain in 78%, compared to 22% of husbands' families. Emotional and physical abuse were more evenly split, with wives affected in 60% and husbands in 40% of cases. In 70% of workaholism-related divorces it was husbands who were the cause, and in 30%, wives. The 2004 survey found that 93% of divorce cases were petitioned by wives, very few of which were contested. 53% of divorces were of marriages that had lasted 10 to 15 years, with 40% ending after 5 to 10 years. The first 5 years are relatively divorce-free, and if a marriage survives more than 20 years it is unlikely to end in divorce. The age at which a person gets married is also believed to influence the likelihood of divorce; delaying marriage may provide more opportunity or experience in choosing a compatible partner..............

I'll summon the minister of marriage to look into this. Sorry! I have not yet appointed ministers.
