Once taboo, divorce is now common in today
world. Many factors have contributed to the
tenfold increase in the divorce rate over the
past century. Women have become less
economically dependent on men, which mean
they are now able to leave unhappy marriages
and support themselves. Legal standards have
also relaxed, making divorce easier to obtain.
Because the divorce rate is so high, so is the
rate of remarriage. Today’s society is still
coming to terms with the ramifications of
blended families, those composed of children
and parents from both present and past
marriages.
