...Divorce is a very common word in today's society. According to the American Heritage Dictionary, divorce is the legal dissolution of a marriage or a complete or radical severance of closely connected things (Gottman, J. 1994).). This dissolution of marriage has increased very rapidly in the past fifty years. Throughout this paper I will discuss divorces effects on children. The dissolution of a marriage is a legal act that may not coincide with the emotional tearing asunder. Divorce is typically a painful process for all concerned. While it can take adults time to regain psychological equilibrium, there is debate whether children ever recover a stable perspective. Post-divorce hostility between adults, in addition to directly harming kids, is a sure indicator that the emotional split is incomplete. In the U.S., divorce rates have been rising since the beginning of the 20th century, and especially since the 1970s, when no-fault divorce was instituted. Some experts contend that the easing of divorce laws has helped make marriage stronger by rooting it more deeply in personal choice, although it does little to give people the skills needed to work out the inevitable difficulties that arise in marriage. Divorce is a big scary word for many. To some, it is a word that represents failure and a reason for them to raise the white flag in defeat. Trials and tribulations seemed to take their toll and cause reason for a significant change in lifestyle, routines, and marital status. To...

...| Tax Research Project I | October 30, 2013 | | Molly Curry | ACCT-310-01 | | Facts: After Maria and Tatsuo are divorced, their two children continue to live with Maria. Pursuant to their divorce decree, Tatsuo pays Maria $1,000 per month in child support and $1,800 per month in alimony. The divorce decree specifies that in the event of a court ordered increase in child support, the alimony payment amount will decrease by the amount of the child support increase. That is, Tatsuo’s total monthly payment cannot exceed $2,800. Issues: How much of each payment is considered alimony? Does the change in child support have an effect on the amount of alimony received? Conclusion: Generally, child support is not included in taxable income and alimony payments are. The mandate from the court would increase the child support and decrease her alimony. The question remains whether this court mandate increasing child support is considered a contingency. Following case law and Treasury Regulations, the change in child support would not decrease the amount of alimony to be recorded because the court ordered increase in child support is not a contingency related to a child, therefore having no effect on the amount of alimony. Maria must recognize the full amount of each alimony payment as part of taxable income. The $1,800 of alimony payments should be included in Maria’s taxable income and is not deductable; however it is deductable for her former husband...

...has disintegrated. The married couple with 2.4 children is disappearing. The sequence of life events - marriage, sex and children - has been radically reordered. Marriage rarely comes first and increasingly does not happen at all. Over the past 30 years, levels of cohabitation have trebled, the number of babies born outside marriage has quintupled, and the number of single-parent families has trebled. The most dramatic change, however, has been to the "happy ever after" bit in the picture of family life. In the past 30 years, the rate of divorce has doubled; and half of all children now experience their parents' divorce before they are 16. All four trends - cohabitation, divorce, births outside marriage and single parents - are likely to be even more pronounced by 2020. There is no evidence that any of them are easing. Much has been made of the fact that the divorce rate appears to have reached a plateau - Britain has the highest divorce rate in Europe - but it is still rising in first marriages. Cohabitation arrangements are even more likely to break down than marriages. So what will be accepted as a general...

Dapat legalize na yan ..kasi meron naman tayong anullment which is very unfair para sa mahihirap kasi mayayaman lang nakaka-afford.. unfair law yang anullment para sa walang pera ..unlike pag may divorced mas affordable at mas madali para sa lahat.. As of 2003, it was recorded that 4 out of 25 marriages in the Philippines end up in Legal Separation. Other couples decide not to legalize their separation simply because they cannot afford it. This is one of the many reasons why many politicians are pro divorce. Divorce is the legal dissolution of a marriage by court or other competent bodies (Oxford, nd.). It is way cheaper than annulment and legal separation. Philippines is the only country in the world that does not allow divorce because the Church is against it. All countries including predominantly Catholic countries in the world like Spain, Poland, and Mexico permit divorce. Maybe the Church there has opposed it, but...

History tells us that in 1912 that is during the American regime Act No. 2710 was passed providing for the granting of absolute divorce on the grounds of adultery, concubinage and personal violence. However, when the laws was implemented, a number of safeguards were taken to ensure the preservation of marital bond and to prevent abuses, such as filing for divorce could not be done until a year after having established adultery or concubinage and within five years after the date occurred. This measure was resorted to in order to give the spouses a chance for reconciliation it was still possible during the period...

...The Effects Of Divorce On Chidren and Families Background of the study In our epoch, divorces are among the most important social problems of modern society. According to recent studies, almost every second marriage in the United States ends with separation of the partners. Of course, many of such families have one or more young children and teenagers, who must learn to live with the problem of divorced parents.

Of course, there are some situations when separation of the parents becomes a happy end of their relations and a relief for everybody in the family.
