[quote=Anonymous]I have been married for 31 years to a spouse with divorced parents. I am glad I married them, and have never regretted it for a second. So, I obviously think it would be foolish to rule out someone with divorced parents. But it would also be foolish to ignore it completely. Divorce leaves a mark on children. It creates issues and complications, some hidden, some not. Your worst case is you get someone who has not totally worked through those issues and recreates a bad family dynamic. Your best case - the one I have - is that your spouse has worked through almost all the issues, and is emotionally healthy and can maintain a good relationship. And even then, you have to navigate two sets of in-laws, and deal with their logistics at holidays, birthday parties, weddings, and every big event in your life. It's a hassle! But, like I said - I don't regret marrying a spouse with divorced parents. [/quote]
