Family law attorneys cite the poor economy as the number one reason that couples are staying together when they would otherwise likely divorce. This makes for a lot of unhappy households but at least a whole lot more children are not caught in the middle of their parents' divorce proceedings

With family law attorney's fees hovering around three hundred dollars per hour in many areas there is simply not enough money to sustain protracted litigation. Maybe some of those folks should invest in marriage counseling and work to improve their respective interpersonal communication skills. It is much cheaper and probably money spent more wisely.

Sometimes though, the economic stressors can put a great deal of strain on the best of marriages. Indeed, there are many ways to interpret the effects of a declining economy. People often divorce because of problems with money, sex and communication. If you are just left with sex and communication, make the best of it.
