More baby boomers filing for divorce
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Friday, February 17, 2012. It used to be quite rare to see people who were in their 60s file for divorce. However, it seems there has been a shift, as baby boomers are now filing for divorce at twice the rate of 20 years ago. According to the National Center for Family and Marriage, in 1990 only one in every 10 divorces was a baby boomer couple. Now, that demographic makes up one in every four. Additionally, an AARP survey found that in 2004, 66 percent of those divorces were actually started by the wives.
