[quote=Anonymous]Ooof that’s a touchy subject. All other things equal, it’s better if the person’s parents are married and in a relatively stable/happy marriage. Of course nothing is perfect. But the fact is, there are a lot of problems that stem from divorce. Not necessarily the divorce itself, I think kids know when their parents are unhappy and need to split up. But a large percentage of my female friends who have divorced or single parents were sexually and/or physically abused as kids, unfortunately, because they were shuttled around to so many different places and saw so many relatives and acquaintances for child care. It’s a known fact that “mom’s boyfriend”/the stepdad is the perpetrator in a lot of child abuse cases. Then those people tend to have tough adult relationships because of the trauma they endured in childhood ... leading to a lower likelihood of them having a stable and healthy marriage themselves.
