It is frustrating when so many people sit there telling people it's better for kids when their parents are married. This shit is very insensitive to those of us who grew up with parents who were toxic for each other and hated one another and fought and drank. The impact it had on me and my siblings resulted in us not being on speaking terms because it traumatized us growing up in a home with 2 people who were told by people like you that they needed to stay married because it was better for us kids.
It caused me to become severely depressed and even try and end things because I wanted to escape such an environment. I have never even been able to have a healthy relationship myself because all I have ever known is you need to fight and argue and drink in order to make a relationship/ marriage work. Me and my siblings wanted our parents to divorce because they hated each other and were toxic for one another but because of you people they felt forced to stay together and this messed me and my siblings over
It's people like you who also contributed to forcing women to stay with their abusive husbands because your there saying being divorced will affect the kids more. Than those poor kids end up being left without a mother and father because their father murdered their mother and the dad is in jail.
So stop telling people parents being married is better for the kids because that crap can be just as damaging to kids as it is for kids who grow up with divorced parents.

Agreed. There are far too many people on this app who are opposed to single parent homes without taking into consideration as to the WHY people choose single parenting. All they want to bring up is how bad it is and a majority of drug abusers come from single family homes which just isn't true.
Even though most kids don't want their family to break up, kids will always be better off with stable parents apart rather than unstable parents together. The parents are the kids' role model. The kids are being taught what is normal behavior, so these kids tend to be drawn to or tolerate similar dysfunction as they get older.
