Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 1.7, , language: English, abstract: Many divorced women face more financial difficulties than men. Often, women are making some lifestyle changes in order to supplement and secure their incomes after a divorce. Some may decide to work long hours or take a second job after divorce. Those who may not have had jobs before the divorce are likely to get one. Many divorced women experience some difficulties in getting employment, or remain trapped in low-wage jobs, and could end up doing two jobs in order to survive. While women experience a decline in their financial status after a divorce, it is evident that there is more to financial well-being than just financial income. Most women who experience financial decline are likely to feel poor; therefore, it is important to consider the factors that could mitigate the financial outcomes if the divorced women are to be assisted.

Download or read book Parental Life Courses after Separation and Divorce in Europe written by Michaela Kreyenfeld and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-02 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book assembles landmark studies on divorce and separation in European countries, and how this affects the life of parents and children. It focuses on four major areas of post-separation lives, namely (1) economic conditions, (2) parent-child relationships, (3) parent and child well-being, and (4) health. Through studies from several European countries, the book showcases how legal regulations and social policies influence parental and child well-being after divorce and separation. It also illustrates how social policies are interwoven with the normative fabric of a country. For example, it is shown that father-child contact after separation is more intense in those countries which have adopted policies that encourage shared parenting. Correspondingly, countries that have adopted these regulations are at the forefront of more egalitarian gender role attitudes. Apart from a strong emphasis on the legal and social policy context, the studies in this volume adopt a longitudinal perspective and situate post-separation behaviour and well-being in the life course. The longitudinal perspective opens up new avenues for research to understand how behaviour and conditions prior or at divorce and separation affect later behaviour and well-being. As such this book is of special appeal to scholars of family research as well as to anyone interested in the role of divorce and separation in Europe in the 21st century.
Download or read book The Economics of Divorce written by Craig Everett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Economics of Divorce recognizes the critical role economic factors play during and after the divorce process. In the past, research into this issue has remained very general despite the enormous weight economics put on the entire divorce process. This book concentrates on elements specifically relevant to the economic variables of divorce. It focuses on the issues of work, employment, and financial support after divorce and how these issues affect the parents, children, and home environments of divorced families. The research presented not only provides insights into the economic aspects of divorce, but it is also invaluable to the entire study of divorce and remarriage as it explores the personal impact of these issues. Geared toward anyone working with divorced families, whether they are clinicians, educators, mediators, or attorneys, The Economics of Divorce is also of use to members of divorced or remarried families. The book contains demographics on the financial lives of custodial parents who remarry, custodial parents who work, and the financial support of college students from divorced families. It offers a close study of the realities of single parenting and reentering the work force, as well as the economic consequences of marital dissolution. The Economics of Divorce is unique in that it is the first publication of its kind to formally identify the economic results of divorcing and remarried families. It reshapes thinking on issues often taken for granted and redefines the ways in which financial issues are addressed. This book analyzes and advises readers on a number of personal and practical issues. Topics discussed include: the role of employment for women intergenerational financial support the economics of remarried families financial support for children’s college education The book was designed not only to address these issues but to also facilitate further research and discussion into the economic realities of divorced families. The Economics of Divorce is the first in its field to address the impact of economics on divorced families, but hopefully not the last.

Download or read book MoneySmart Divorce written by Esther M. Berger and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1996 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over one million marriages will end in divorce this year. Over one million women will not live happily ever after. They will, even by conservative estimates, suffer a 24 percent decrease in living standards while their ex-husbands' fortunes drop by 5 percent at most." "Divorce hurts. But it hurts women a lot more than men. Especially from a financial perspective." "The emotional and financial dynamics of divorce are unlike those of any other life transition. Never do money and emotions intersect more painfully than during and immediately following divorce. At no other times are a woman's net worth and her self-worth so completely intertwined. During divorce negotiations, money becomes a symbol of all that has gone wrong in the marriage. Fear, pain, anger, and guilt all culminate in arguments about money." "Money becomes a reward for whoever succeeds at the emotional bartering game. But the emotional wear and tear of divorce often prevents women from making moneysmart decisions that will affect the rest of their lives." "Now Esther M. Berger, a Beverly Hills certified financial planner, offers women at every income level the critical information they need to know before, during, and after divorce. With advice on everything from making the first phone call to an attorney to negotiating alimony and child support to living on a post-divorce budget, MoneySmart Divorce helps you move beyond the emotional turmoil and confusion to discover that there is life after divorce." "MoneySmart Divorce teaches women which professional advisors you need - and how to find them; how to separate your emotions from your money during difficult financial negotiations; how to avoid classic "Divorce Dirty Tricks"; how to use the Two C's and Two D's to negotiate a moneysmart settlement; and how to formulate your own financial plan and make investment decisions that work for you." "The cost of divorce is incredibly high, in both financial and psychological terms. MoneySmart Divorce helps you acknowledge and confront the pain of divorce while at the same time providing the necessary tools for moving forward and taking control of your own financial life."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Gray Divorce written by Jocelyn Elise Crowley and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After 20, 30, or even 40 years of marriage, countless vacations, raising well-adjusted children, and sharing property and finances, what could go wrong? Gray Divorce is a provocative look at the rising rate of marital splits after the age of 50. Renowned author and researcher Jocelyn Elise Crowley uncovers the reasons why men and women divorce—and the penalties and benefits that they receive for their choices. From the outside, many may ask why couples in mid-life and readying for retirement choose to make a drastic change in their marital status. Yet, nearly one out of every four divorces in the United States is “gray.” With a deft eye, Crowley analyzes the differing experiences of women and men in this mid-life transition—the seismic shift in individual priorities, the role of increased life expectancy, and how women are affected economically while men are affected socially. With a realistic yet passionate voice, Crowley shares the personal positive outlooks and the necessary supportive public policies that must be enacted to best help the newly divorced. Engaging and instructive, Gray Divorce is a must-read for anyone interested in contemporary American culture.

Book excerpt: The Knowledge Every Man Needs for a Successful Divorce Each year 500,000 men will face divorce, and most of them make at least one crucial—and often irreversible—mistake. These errors might seem minor, such as moving out while things get sorted out, or thinking of “temporary” orders as being truly temporary. But when they get to court, these men discover they have put themselves in a terrible position. They may have to give up their house, pay impossibly high alimony, or even lose custody. You could be one of these men. But you don’t have to be. Joseph Cordell, the founder of the nation’s largest law firm focusing on men’s divorce and the creator of the Dads Divorce website, has seen the consequences of the mistakes men make. Drawing upon the huge number of cases that Cordell & Cordell has handled, this book identifies the 10 most common mistakes that end up hurting men in divorce. Cordell demystifies the divorce process, explains what judges consider in making their final decisions, and lays out a road map for positive actions men can take to achieve the best possible outcome. No man should face divorce without this book.
