When parents divorce, does it influence their kid’s views about divorce and the stability of their future adult romantic relationships?  It depends on how children view mom and dads’ relationship prior to the divorce.  Those who recalled observing their parents fight had more favorable views of divorce as young adults.  But those who saw less conflict prior to the divorce had more negative views of divorce and experienced more stable relationships as adults.
