[quote=Anonymous]Terrible idea. Kids don't really understand divorce. They want the fighting to stop, and they are likely to say what they think the adults want to hear, so they might say yes to divorce. But they don't understand the complexities of finances, step families, elder care, second marriage divorces and the loss that entails for them, etc. They aren't going to be able to express a truly meaningful preference. So don't ask them. Just because your friends say they wished their parents had divorced, does not mean it would have been appropriate for your friends to be asked that question.[/quote]
