Summary
In a time when conservatives worry that allowing homosexual to marry will destroy the sanctity of marriage and the family, heterosexual Americans are divorcing at a greater rate than ever before. The ratio of divorces to marriages is around 50% , suggesting that half of all marriages are doomed to fail. Moreover, many of these divorces are in families with children. A study in 2005 found that 37% of America children do not grow up with both biological parents. (Popenoe, 2007) Discovering what leads to divorce and the psychological ramifications for it are becoming increasingly relevant as this divorce trend continues to grow.
