The unnamed 70-year-old from Buenos Aires divorced in 2011.

On 6/11/19 at 8:12 AM EDTIn a landmark ruling, a woman in Argentina has been awarded a payout from her husband for the housework and child-rearing she did during their three-decade marriage.

The couple separated in 2009 and divorced in 2011. The court ruling stated the woman had experienced financial difficulties while the husband"lived a good life." She also considered how her husband had left her when she was 60, at retirement age and too old to enter the job market. "In most families, women still mainly assume the burden of domestic chores and the care of children, even when they work outside the home," the ruling added.
