10 Interesting stats you didn’t know about marriage – You will be surprise to see this!

2. Married couples with a daughter are 5% more likely to get a divorce compared to married couples with a son 

This might sound like the weirdest thing you have ever heard, but according to research, couples who have girls, as their firstborns are 5% more likely to divorce than couples who have boys. In addition, a family with two daughters has a 43% chance of ending up in divorce when you compare it to a family with two sons, which has a 37% risk of ending in divorce. Although many factors can be the cause of the above statistics, most professionals tend to think that fathers are more involved in the family where they are raising sons, but are more distant when raising daughters. When a father takes an active role in raising the children, regardless of their gender, the mother feels his support and their teamwork ends up strengthening their marriage.
