One of the most important social problems with complex dimensions is divorce, which brings about the devastation of family life. Family is perceived as one of the fundamental pillars and main institutions of every society. Therefore sociologists cannot afford to keep themselves away from family analysis and its changes. They have always tried to study it via certain and special perspectives. Moreover, everybody agrees that in none of the previous historical eras the family has been so widely suffered from the problem of divorce and its side effects than our contemporary era. The rates of marriage and divorce registered in Iran indicate that the number of divorces is increasing more than the number of marriages. So this phenomenon in Iran is considered as a challenge or serious social problem. A review of divorce's statistics in Iran during 2012 (6 percent growth in proportion to the previous year) indicates the increasing rate of this problem in general and particularly in the region under study in this paper. It appears that the more industrialization in cities and villages, the more new conflicts in previously traditional communities. Such modern changes have devastated the institution of family rather than protecting it, and this can have wide effects on the health of divorced couples, and children. This indicates a critical condition which needs to be studied in order to protect the family and reduce the rate of divorce. Because social damages depend on each other, expansion in one may cause others to expand as well so we must study divorce to prevent other problems from happening and/or expanding.
