Summer is Peak Divorce Season
Summer is a time for fun, relaxation, and vacations. It is also peak season for divorces.
During the summer, children are home from school, families are vacationing, and married couples are spending more time together. If there are issues in a marriage, they tend to worsen when the parties spend more time together and when they are under more stress.
Summertime presents stressers for married couples. Children are home from school and needing entertainment. Vacations are expensive and can cause financial strain. It is hot and humid, and tensions can run high.
Divorce filings increase during the month of August, which may be attributable to the stress of the summer, the increased time for reflection and relaxation, or a desire to move forward in beginning the divorce process before children return to school.
