[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there are three primary "off-ramps" for marriage: starter marriage (about 1 year); school age kids (youngest kid about 6); and empty nest (youngest kid goes to college). [/quote] I would also add retirement as a fourth ramp. That's when my parents got divorced after 36 years of marriage and kids in their late 20s and early 30s. Several of their friends also split in the surrounding 2-4 years when making the transition to working full time to retirement or reduce hours. Their divorce was before they became grandparents. I sometimes wonder if they had grandchildren to focus on if it would have changed things. [/quote]
