Men become financial better than women after a divorce. It appears after an inquiry from the University of Antwerp. It says that women lose almost 142 euro per month from their income and that the revenue of the men increases with 100 euro per month. It takes at least 5 years for the women to reestablish her income again. The reason for all that, we can find in their work- and family situation. Married women, with children mostly work part time. They also get often the custody after the divorce and that makes it harder to find more flexible work. This inquiry stirs up again the discussion on the new law, there they think that women get financial better out a divorce than men. What apparently isn’t!
A divorce is always a painful thing, but the financial side can be even tougher. I think it’s very important that these ex-lovers can’t bankrupt each other and have a normal life after their relationship. But if this inquiry shows that women are discriminated on that part, then the law certainly must be revised.

I really think that people should do something against that phenomenon, it's just not normal that women have it harder after a divorce than men.

If a man and a woman think a little bit reasonable after a broken marrage, they can avoid a lot of problems. If they can work out a good financial deal it will bring just advantages for their children, wallet,... 'fight-divorces' who are very populair nowadays will be reduced. These manner can be usefull when couples go out eachother in peace.
