Answer to Question 1

The younger the partners are when they marry, the more likely they are to divorce. Early marriageespecially before age 18is one of the strongest predictors of divorce.Those who delay marriage until their twenties are usually more mature than teens and better able to handle the challenges of married life. Moreover, teen marriages are often hastened by a premarital pregnancy, another high-risk factor that increases the likelihood of divorce.
