Divorce Lawyers Say More Women Are Paying Child Support

What do the nuclear family and the glass ceiling have in common?

They’re both on their way out in the United States.

The latest data that speaks to this is the fact that more women are paying alimony and child support than ever before.

According to Reuters, over half of divorce lawyers are seeing more mothers paying child support in the last three years, and nearly half of the lawyers have noticed more moms paying alimony.

Somewhat hilariously, a lawyer quoted in Reuters says, “We see women who are every bit as angry as their male counterparts, maybe more so, when they are confronted with the concept of paying spousal support to a man.”

Imagine that.
