Is it funny that when families were forced to spend more time together, the divorce rate went up?

  Correlation does not imply causation. Pandemic times were very hard on people, economically, emotionally and socially. This added stress probably played a large part in divorce rates, pushing strained relationships over the breaking point.

    People often can’t divorce because of finances. The free money folks were getting made divorce more accessible. The fact the many people were unemployed and kids weren’t going to school made custody and alimony simpler. Many court proceedings were simpler too. Everything was remote. You could divorce without leaving home.

      Good point.
