Nearly 6 in 10 divorces involve children
Nearly six in 10 of the civil
divorces last year involved couples who had children below the age
of 21.
Minister for Community
Development Youth and Sports Vivian Balakrishnan gave this update
in a written reply to a question in
Parliament.
With regards to Muslim divorces,
the figure is slightly higher at around seven in
10.
In most of these cases, the woman
was awarded custody of the children.
