There probably isn't a household in America that hasn't been affected by social media in some fashion. But when social media sites start creating havoc in a marriage -- so much so that they could lead to divorce -- perhaps a couple needs to re-evaluate the time each spends online and doing what, where and with whom. Facebook seems to have been pegged as a big culprit, apparently causing 33 percent of divorces in the United States, including some of those in California.

In these cases, a neutral person is often required to be present during any visits between parent and child.
