SHOULD YOU LIVE TOGETHER BEFORE YOU GET MARRIED In contrast the majority of studies suggest that living together can put relationships at risk.

The men interviewed were slightly more likely than women to say they wanted to get married in their 30s, but 33% less likely than women to say they wanted to get married in their 20s. MUMMY’S BOYS, DADDY’S GIRLS AND TEENAGE MENTAL HEALTH Mummy’s boys may be the butt of jokes and subject to name-calling, but they actually fare better in roughing out the challenges of teenage life than those more detached from their mother’s apron strings.

But there is a whole raft of reasons why this would make very bad law, not least because the numbers involved are far smaller than anyone might guess and the potential for unintended consequences is far larger than might be apparent at first glance. UK HAS THE FASTEST FALL IN DIVORCE RATES ACROSS EUROPE A new report released by Marriage Foundation, using data from Eurostat, shows that divorce rates in Europe are continuing to fall – with the UK leading the way.

Previous Marriage Foundation has shown around one per cent (1.3 per cent) of married parents split in the course of a year, compared to over five per cent (5.3 per cent) of HOW LONG DOES THE AVERAGE MARRIAGE LAST? Using the same method used by Office for National Statistics (ONS) – but adjusting for the significant number of UK couples who marry overseas – I estimate that the average (median) length of a marriage beginning today is 40 years before ending in either divorce or death.. This contrasts sharply with the oft-quoted figure of 12 years, which is the average (median) length of marriages that FAMILY BREAKDOWN HAS A MAJOR INFLUENCE ON TEEN MENTAL Family breakdown is the biggest factor behind the UK’s child mental health crisis, a new Marriage Foundation report has found. More than a third of (36 per cent) children whose parents had split up reported poor mental health, compared to only a fifth (22 per cent) with parents who were still together. BLEAK PROSPECTS FOR TEENS WHO NEVER MARRY, FINDS THE Overall, two thirds of women who get married and have children remain with the father for life. Among women who never marry, just one in ten will avoid splitting from their partner. Far fewer 20 year olds are predicted to marry than the previous generation; only 52 per cent of 20 year olds compared to MUMMY’S BOYS, DADDY’S GIRLS AND TEENAGE MENTAL HEALTH Mummy’s boys may be the butt of jokes and subject to name-calling, but they actually fare better in roughing out the challenges of teenage life than those more detached from their mother’s apron strings.

“DATE NIGHTS” STRENGTHEN MARRIAGES Marriage Foundation research finds couples who go on occasional date nights have 14 per cent lower odds of their relationship breaking down – but only among those who are married.

The men interviewed were slightly more likely than women to say they wanted to get married in their 30s, but 33% less likely than women to say they wanted to get married in their 20s. OUT OF THE BLUE: FAMILY BREAKDOWN IN THE UK Our new analysis of data from the UK survey Understanding Society shows that high conflict warring couples are a rarity among couples who split.

Most of this involves happy couples andtherefore comes
LEGAL RIGHTS FOR COHABITING COUPLES WILL CREATE MORE It seems like a no-brainer, doesn’t it. A woman – and in most cases it is a woman – lives with a man for a number of years, sacrifices part or all of career to bring up their children, whereupon he walks out taking all of his earning with him. * __ info@marriagefoundation.org.uk Facebook-f __ Twitter__

FAMILY BREAKDOWN COSTS £50BN A YEAR When couples split up, families move from one to two households. Poverty is a common outcome that affects children. Six out of ten lone parents are supported by the state compared to one out of ten couple parents. That’s where most of the £50bn is spent. UK AMONG HIGHEST FAMILY BREAKDOWN IN EUROPE Five years ago, the UK had the highest rate of family breakdown in Europe. We’re not doing as badly today, but only because of big falls in divorce rates. Alas there’s no sign of a similar improvement among cohabitees LOWER DIVORCE RATES – HIGHER LONE PARENTS Divorce rates have plummeted over the past 3 decades, but the number of lone parents has doubled in the same period. Why?… Because unmarried parents make up only one in five cohabiting parents but are responsible for one half of all family breakdown. STABILITY IS FOUND IN MARRIAGE Whereas stability is the norm if parents are married (75% stay together), it is the exception if they are not (30% stay together). As a result, among parents of teens who are still together as a couple, nine out of ten are married SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR The single most important factor in a child’s healthy development is the stable relationship of the parents.
