Current divorce rates are:

at an all-time high

at an all-time low

steadily increasing

steadily declining

The correct answer is D. Steadily declining

Explanation:

The word "divorce" refers to the resolution of marriage or marital union as defined in each cultural context. This phenomenon is widely studied in fields such as psychology and sociology because it is related to social structure, cultural values, property, children, among others. Because of this, the rate of divorces all around the world and the rate of divorces in particular countries such as the U. S. have changed over time as different aspects of society have also evolved. Indeed during the second half of the 20th century divorce rates increased especially between the 60s and the 70s for example, in the U. S. during this time the highest rate was 5.1 marriages divorced every day for 1000 citizens, but steadily declined since the 80s and nowadays the rate is around 2.9 which is attributed to fewer people getting married and people getting married at older ages. Therefore, current divorce rates are steadily declining.
