My parents are divorced and I’m doing just fine; no drugs, graduate degree, steady job, yada yada yada. Although, they got divorced when I was young and I never remember them being together. Is the issue divorced parents or seeing your parents going through divorce?

Many times staying together is more damaging to kids than divorce

People get divorced all the time and kids turn out alright. There are also kids from completely normal families that end up struggling through life. shite happens. In my opinion staying in a toxic relationship is more harmful than getting a divorce. For those that say you shouldn't have got married in the first place, well sometimes people change through the course of the relationship or they never showed their true colors while you were dating.

there's a chance it won't frick up the kids, so take it.

You're dumb
Many children can thrive just as long as one parent is very consistent in their upbringing
Any decent psychologist will say this

Can is the key word. You're willing to take that chance?
It usually doesn't work out for the best.

If you make each other miserable, what's the point of staying together it only gets worse as the child gets older.

Girls whose parents divorced are more likely to have daddy issues and frick like crazy. In a nutshell, they usually think their parents would have stayed together if daddy would have been happy, so they will spend their lives trying to please men.

Im sorry but when you take your marriage vows isnt it "until death do us part"
So in my mind you have 2 choices, you either stay married, or you should be dead.
This is the problem with America. Too many liars. There is no honour any more.
Also cheating should be punishable by death. Time to restore the traditional nuclear family by any means necessary

i was thrilled when my parents divorced. i hated listening to them arguing all the damn time.

quote:yep. Thats the grey area of the “study” that kinda makes these statistics a little ridiculous to look too deep into. Overall, it’s true that kids with unhappy parents because of selfish choices cause their kids to grow into doing incorrect sorts of things, but ‘divorce’ itself isn’t the main cause. Like Roger said, and I’ll further exacerbate that, parents staying together that fight like dogs is the WORST thing a kid can live with. Much healthier that the parents split for their well-being, which isnt factored into the equation for this study...

TL:DR ..... The study should be labeled “Children of couples who are unhappy together, in whatever scenario, still suffer the residual effects for the rest of their lives”

people will chime in here and say how their parents got divorced and they turned out normal but we all know they aren't normal

When there are kids involved, divorce is very often a selfish and short-sighted decision by people who have their priorities out of order.
Yep. When the parents get divorced a vast majority of the kids become deadbeats, criminals, or addicts
