Doghouse Posted at 5:11 am on Jan. 8, 2009 it doesn't. technically, how the child is predisposed to react to such situation will affect the child's future relationship. cherryD Posted at 5:10 am on Jan. 8, 2009 They may get all paranoid and think that all marriages would end someday and they might get up to the point of being afraid to be in relationships. Let It Snow Posted at 5:08 am on Jan. 8, 2009 Yes. My parents are separated. I've lived my life seeing the two fight nonstop. All I ever seen between the two. If that'd happen to me, no way in hell I ever want to get married. Al Legator Posted at 5:06 am on Jan. 8, 2009 IMO, yes. And sadly, I'm a divorced parent. I think that relationships are taught to children by their parents for the most part. Not just marital relationships, but all kinds- business, social, relationships with our neighbours, even our political systems (ie: parents don't vote or get involved, children tend to be the same) All 5 previous replies displayed.
