Statistics say that approximately 50% of married couples will end their marriage through divorce. Given this statistic it would stand to reason that there is less shame attached to divorce now than there has been in the past. No doubt the “stigma” of divorce is lessening. After all, Donald Trump has been married three times and divorced twice. He has children with his current wife and both ex-wives. This did not stop us as a country from electing him President. In fact, not only were his multiple marriages rarely mentioned during the campaign, but his children from all three marriages were visible and supportive of him during the election. It was a real-life version of “Modern Family”. Unfortunately, despite the acceptance of divorce and remarriage in today’s society, many people going through divorce still feel a sense of failure. This makes sense. Although divorce is commonplace, it is never anyone’s goal when getting married. If you are a friend or a relative of a person going through a divorce, rather than a gasp of dismay upon hearing the news, a simple “What can I do to help?” will go a long way towards helping them through the divorce. While the “stigma” of divorce has lessened, the pain and challenges that a divorce brings still exist.
