Happy first day of spring. Will this be mating season, to the extent that cisgender heterosexual couples are imprisoned within their homes, to be followed by a January 2021 baby boom? Or, as a friend in Manhattan predicts, will the increased togetherness be more likely to lead to additional divorce lawsuits? (New York is a great jurisdiction for a plaintiff!)
How about a research study to measure the correlation between forced work-from-home and family outcomes as a function of square feet per person in the apartment or house?
A physician friend predicts “both”. A lot of babies will be born into the middle of divorce litigation circa early 2021.
[If, in fact, the baby boom theory proves correct, will 2033 be known as the “Year of the Quaranteens”?]
To the best of my understanding, only immaculate conception can work from six feet away. Since immaculate conceptions are rare nowadays, divorce is a more likely outcome.

You’re a day late! Yesterday was the first day of spring — the earliest in over a century.
(Plaintiff advice under California law) Hubby’s income is going down dramatically in 2020. Separate immediately to lock in higher alimony payments.
Oh sorry, “petitioner”, not “plaintiff”, it’s no longer a lawsuit in CA.
My money is on “both”!
