> Big question remains why boomers are so prone to divorce, considering that they lived in the easiest economic times.
Theory:
Couples who do not go through hardship together (whether economic or otherwise) do not bond as closely as those who have, and therefore are more prone to divorce.
I have no evidence to support this...
