divorce vs. non divorce

The article about children and divorce made me think about my childhood and the effect it had on me as a child when I was at a friends house and her parents always fought. I was always greatfull that my parents were still married but I also knew from being around my friends house and hearing her parents fight when they thought we couldnt hear them that i never wanted to hear my parents like that it was horrible on my friend and it ended up she was always at my house so she didnt have to be stuck listening to it. In the end she still to this day says she wishes her parents would have divorced when she was a child. But i also agree that parents are giving up to easily anymore if they deside that they just are bord anymore it seems that is enough reason to get a divorce instead of trying to figure out what really is the problem. Children can have pros and cons for their parents being together or divorced it all depends on the reasonings and how the parents deal with it and how they talk to their child about it. I think parents should always rememeber children hear alot more then we think and they also understand what we are saying or atleast make their own conclutions of what they think we are saying.
