In a landmark national survey of teenagers, The GordonPoll Youth Survey(TM) found that more than three-quarters of teens believed that mothers and fathers are equally qualified to care for teens after a divorce. Slightly fewer teens felt that both parents are equally qualified to care for young children after a divorce. They want parents to know that divorce "hurts," "sucks" and that they "don't want to be blamed for it" or "caught in the middle."
The GordonPoll Youth Survey(TM) measures the attitudes, thoughts and feelings of youth about family issues. It is a national online survey of more than 1000 teenagers between the ages of 14 and 18 about divorce.

5 Ways to Find Hidden Assets in a Divorce
Johnny Carson once joked that the difference between a divorce and a separation is that a separation gives the husband enough time to hide his money.
But in today’s rough economy, finding hidden assets in a divorce is no joke. Heather Mills accused former hubby Paul McCartney of hiding assets during their high profile divorce, and Terry "Hulk Hogan" Bollea and his wife, Linda Bollea, have accused each other of the same thing. But this issue goes way beyond celebrity divorces.
When family finances wear thin, divorcing couples treat nickels like manhole covers, and the temptation to hide assets from an estranged or divorced spouse is growing...

Cruelest Month For Divorce? January
Cruelest Month For Divorce? January, After Holiday Glow Fades...
Few would name January as their favorite month. The holiday parties are over, and the bills arrive; resolutions loom, and so does ice and snow. Now there is another element to add to this wintry mix: Lawyers say January is the month when the largest numbers of couples come in to talk divorce.
Whether it's people resolving in the autumn to get divorced but waiting until after the holidays, or the holidays themselves pushing many to their limit, the first month of the year may be the saddest one for couples...

Marcia Sherrill could've used a Web site like hers, she says, when she was going through a divorce almost three years ago.
So she spent the past couple of years creating Victory Over Divorce (www.victoryoverdivorce.com), she says, to help others avoid some of the legal, emotional and financial tolls of divorce that she experienced.
"It does not have to happen to you," says the "49 and proud of it" mother of one, who splits her time between Birmingham and New York. "We offer you the resources: `Don't waste your money on that. Try this.'"

Pitfalls of Divorce
Divorce is common these days, as is joint custody of children. That arrangement can lead to unforeseen problems, namely what public school
does the child attend if parents live in different towns.
This is a real-life problem for 13-year-old Kaitlyn Keegan, who splits time between her father, who lives in Rockaway, and her mother, who lives in Randolph. Kaitlyn attends school in Rockaway but also spends some time staying at her mother's residence in Randolph. That proved troublesome earlier this year when Kaitlyn was observed by detectives hired by the Rockaway district leaving her mother's Randolph residence three days in a week. The Rockaway district tried to remove her from school...
