Do you think someone is more likely to get married and divorced if their parents were divorced?
Do you think people whose parents did not divorce are less likely to themselves?

My parents have not divorced nor had my paternal grandparents. Yet I was divorced in my 20's. My wife's mother has been married 3x and her father twice. Her sister has been divorced 3x. Yet, she's only been married to me and we both fully intend to make it forever.
I don't know if that helps any. In my case, it doesn't appear to matter. but statistics may show differently.
