“…In Bangladesh, the co-residing married couple is normative, but father absence due to migrant labor evokes no negative reaction (Bhuiya et al 2005;Rahman 2010) and is instead viewed positively due to its association with higher income (Shenk et al 2013;Schoen 2019). Having a parent absent due to death or divorce, by contrast, is viewed negatively (Alam et al 2000;Munro et al 2015;Rahman et al 2013). Women are commonly blamed for causing divorce (icddr,b 2015;Munro et al 2015), which is characterized as the most "detestable" of allowable situations (Bangladesh Laws 2016), and widows interviewed for this study reported that they were often blamed even for their husbands' deaths.…”

“…Divorced or widowed men may also be stigmatized, but to a lesser degree than women (Alam et al 2000;Amin 1998;Rahman et al 2013), which reflects both double standards (Amin 1998;Feldman and McCarthy 1983) and men's ability to maintain their wage earning role and avoid becoming financial burdens, which have not typically been options for rural widows and divorcées (Jahan 1973;Lewis 1993).…”

Children rely on support from parental helpers (alloparents), perhaps especially in high-needs contexts. Considerable evidence indicates that closer relatives and maternal relatives are the most likely to provide this care, as inclusive fitness theory suggests, but whether this is equally true across different family types and in culturally patrilocal societies requires investigation. This structured interview study (N = 208 respondents with 323 dependent children) focuses on who helps raise children in rural Bangladesh after the father’s or mother’s death, or divorce, in comparison to families with both parents present or the father temporarily a migrant laborer. Family types differed in where and with whom children resided, who served as their primary and secondary caregivers, and who provided material support, but mother’s kin played a major role, and were the primary providers of material resources from outside the child’s household in all family types. Despite the patrilineal ideology, only one-quarter of children of divorce lived with the father or his family, and even after the death of the mother, only 59% remained with father or other paternal kin. Household income varied by family type and was a strong predictor of child height and weight. The children of deceased mothers moved between successive caregivers especially frequently, and were uniquely likely to have no schooling. The typology of Bangladeshi society as patrilocal obscures the extent to which matrilateral family support children’s well-being.

“…Marriage is a basic foundation for the formation of the family institution. Through marriage, a men and women are able to fulfill their responsibilities as a husband and wife together to build the family as well as for the creation of a new generation [1]. However, not all couples are able to undergo their marriage until the end, and even worse, they will face serious domestic unrest thus causing them to dissolve the marriage.…”

Divorce is a major life stressor for the individuals involved, with potentially strong negative consequences for the mental and physical health of all members of the family. The aim of this study was to investigate the existence of regional heterogeneity marital dissolution among women in Ethiopia. The study used data from the 2016 Ethiopia Demographic and Health Survey which was a stratified two stage cluster sampling procedure was used. The researcher has been used (n=11405) of all married women from the selected population of study nested within nine regional states and two administrative cities in Ethiopia at time of interview. The Multilevel model were used to explore the major risk factors and regional variations of marital dissolution in Ethiopia using R statistical software. The descriptive result revealed that among eligible married women the proportion of marital dissolution was 9.91%. Among the three multilevel logistic models the random slope model found to be the best description of the data set and to evaluate the within and between regional heterogeneity of marital dissolution. Using this model variables that significantly affect the marital dissolution in Ethiopia were residence, education level of women, work status of women, duration of marriage, number of children, education level of husband and number of unions. The effects of the determinant variables are the same for each region, but the number of children and education level of husband were the two variables which varies within and between in each region. The other important result from this paper is that missing data analysis using appropriate imputation technique was performed to make better inferences.
