Divorce Rates for Teens
Although I hate to cite MTV.com, an article recently posted has some interesting statistics regarding the divorce rates of those people that marry while in their teens:
> "One-third of teenage marriages (where the bride is younger than 18) end
in divorce within five years, and almost half wind up divorcing within
10 years..."
> "30 percent of teen mothers who marry after their child is born are still married by the time they're 40...."
> "Less than 8 percent of teen moms marry their baby's father within one year of the birth...."
