Social Media Sites and Divorce
The rise in popularity of social media websites such as Facebook has also marked a massive increase over the past few years in the internet being cited as a reason for people filing divorce.
There have been many national tabloid stories featuring the subject with lots of figures being quoted and reported, whatever the true figures one thing is for certain; Facebook has been a massive influence on the national divorce figures in recent years.
One technology related website stated that a leading UK divorce website had conducted a survey where Facebook was blamed for 33 percent of divorces, another national newspaper also recently reported that a leading law firm specialising in divorce were dealing with approx 3 Facebook related divorces per month on average.
There are various reasons attributed to this sharp increase, obviously the amount of users and level of popularity of Facebook itself has brought about the majority of issues. Some reasons Insight can attribute to Facebook being under the spotlight include;
