Czechs and Divorce

I ran across a new study today that says that, although the rate of divorce is falling slightly in the Czech Republic (down to 47%), it is still the highest in the EU.

I found it particularly interesting that the divorce rate is lower for university graduates: "University graduates are the most conservative. It means they divorce the least and they have also the lowest proportion of non-marital births." One case where education really does have an impact on people's lives. It would be worth praying for families in this country.
