[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to really see the reasons behind it.

For cheating, alcoholics, physically and emotionally abusive households,  hell YEAH that would be some MAJOR red flags.  You can pretty much guarantee as nice as they seem in their 20s/early 30s pre-marriage, there are going to be some really big issues come midlife and when kids come along.  A lot of that trauma comes out after kids are born and holidays and everything bring back lots of repressed trauma.  They also learn to 'lie and compartmentalize' because that is what they had to do outside of the home, they usually learned it from the other parent.[/quote]

To this point, I would be very wary of marrying the child of an abusive family unless they had done significant therapy to ensure an end to the cycle of abuse. Regardless of whether the parents were still married.[/quote]

Mom her who left an abusive DH SO THAT my child would not be exposed to it or turn out that way. Now you're telling me he gets all the same disadvantage and stigma?[/quote]
