"According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the divorce rate per 1,000 people in 2005 (the latest study) was 3.6, which is the lowest rate since 1970. The rate has slowly decreased from 4.7 in 1990, then 4.2 in 2000.
Although divorce rates are steadily decreasing, the outlook for marital bliss gets bleaker for those who marry a second time. A National Center for Health Statistics study in 2002 showed that almost 25 percent of second marriages end within five years. Significantly, the study also showed that at least 40 percent of women with children will see their second marriage fail within 10 years."
This quote mainly talks about the statistics of divorces and how many divorces have occured within the past ten years. This is logos and research because you would of had to do research to find this information. It is all numbers, statistics, and percentages. It states that in 2005 there had been a record low of 3.6 percent of divorce in all first marriages. Then within the next five years of getting re-married 25 percent get another divorce. Then it jumps to 40 percent chance of divorce within 10 years of the second marriage
