[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The research of the impact of divorce on kids shows very different results than popular culture suggests: https://slate.com/technology/2022/07/divorce-bad-for-kids-history.html Your responsibility is to create a living situation where you can be the best parent possible for your child. [/quote] Thank you so much PP for sharing that article. That was an excellent compilation of data. A sample: In a 2003 paper, Paul Amato of Penn State created an index of overall psychological well-being and concluded that the overlap between adults with and without divorced parents was 90 percent, meaning only about 10 percent of those with divorced parents had more mental health issues and reported lower life satisfaction and happiness than those with married ones. Almost half, 42 percent, exceeded the average well-being score of the married parents sample.[/quote]
