Absolutely a kid shluld never live in an environment when the parents are always fighting and arguing, so they better divorce, its gonna be hard on the kid at first but its so much better.

Nothing like the western dating culture to build happy marriages.

Both. Both is bad.

Only on Reddit. In the real world. Broken homes cause destitution and turmoil. And the break isn’t even prefaced by severe issues. Simple disagreements and miscommunication is the core of divorce. Not everyone is in some dire shit. But they will be trying to float the bills and parent alone. Millennials are a product of the most divorced and fatherless generation in history. It had a marked effect.

Didn’t click until my teens when I realized my parents slept in not just in different rooms, but different floors of the house for years by that point.

Better to divorce and be good co-parents that stay together “for the kids” and be destructive

Shouting at each other multiple times a month, always ruining vacations with arguments, threatening to >! blow her own brains out !< during them
At least I know where my severe anxiety came from

I wouldn’t say my life is sunshine and rainbows, either. My parents have been divorced since I was a little kid, and now I’ve got a boat load of mental problems.

And then there is me.
A kid whose parents should’ve never met, because divorce didn’t make any difference.

Getting told, that you’re the reason that they are not divorced is also awesome

I agree. I wish mine would get a divorce. They never get into a fight, but they always argue about everything. They can never have a discussion without there being tension.

Hits a little… two happy homes > one unhappy one. Props to the parents who chose peaceÂ

… No. Maybe if they were done looking for partners. But there’s a reason step relationships have the kind of reputation they do. Yuuuck

Debating on sending this to a friend who recently got engaged to someone who cheated on him, broke up with him, and then proceeded to torment him for about a week leaving him in a state of misery wanting nothing more than to get back with them because they have a child together.

Hey, that’s my wife and me. I agree with this meme but recognize that it could be different for others.

Both are severely fucked up, but in different ways
The former often loses the sense of belonging and unity in the family. Self esteem plummets, and so does effectiveness in school or sports. They may distance themselves from friends as a depressive measure, or seek strong dependencies on comfort in their in-groups as they’ve lost it in their family. They become people-pleasers and forever seek that belonging that they just lost.
The latter contracts good old-fashioned neurosis. They’re raised in an aggressive, self-hating household that overdrives survival instincts and shatters the in-group concept in total. Kids are raised by themselves oftentimes, and those aggressive, primal survival instincts are chief among them. These kids are poorly socialized, easily aggravated, and have poor academic performance. They forcibly distance themselves from others, and develop a ‘trust no one’ mentality. They struggle to find any belonging, as they were raised without the concept entirely.
