Why Do Your Authors Suggest That Younger Divorced People Are

Multiple Choice

Why do your authors suggest that younger divorced people are less likely to remarry than older divorced people?​

A) ​Because society has grown more accepting of cohabitation, so a second marriage may not feel necessary.
B) ​Because the "once bitten, twice shy" effect is more salient for younger people who have more to lose if a second marriage fails.
C) ​Because divorce usually leaves people financially devastated, and younger people may not be financially able to remarry anytime soon.
D) ​Because young people usually do not have children when they divorce, and thus they are more "embracing" of their recaptured freedom after a divorce.
