[quote=Anonymous]I think the legacy of divorce plays out differently for different people. I know 3 children of divorced parents who are in strong 20+ year marriages themselves. For them, their parents kept solid connections with the child(ren) and did not involve the child(ren) in their marital struggles. I myself am the child of divorced parents, but my folks aired their dirty laundry everywhere and my borderline mother involved the children in parental alienation. This childhood did not play out well in our own marriages as adults. My takeaway is that your parents are your emotional teachers. You go into a relationship knowing what it is to be loved and cared for because your parents gave you that. If you didn't get that emotional education, there's going to be a lot of guesswork and probably bad decisions.[/quote]
