But the marriage calculator indicates that we’re still favored by the odds:
People with similar backgrounds who are already divorced: 13%
People with similar backgrounds who will be divorced over the next five years: 10%
It’s anecdotal, of course, but in the last few years I seem to be noticing a lot more married couples in their sixties getting divorced, usually around the time their youngest kid graduates from college, than I can recall in the Eighties. At the same time, I only know three divorced couples my own age. Anyone else notice this?
