Document Summary
After it happens, if it happens, if it doesn"t happen. Some people don"t divorce, even though they don"t want that person anymore. Children - basic assumption underlying that factor: if we get divorced, it would be bad for the children, their lives would be wrecked, they would be scarred for life. Look at the children of those who got divorced, and those who didn"t get divorced. Why would you compare yourself to a group of people who are in a happy marriage, you are not one of those, compare the children to parents who are in unhappy marriages and didn"t get divorced. What happens when those people get divorced and compare the effects on children to the people in unhappy marriages and their children. Experimental group: divorced - children (what is life like for children after) You have to compare to the unhappy marriages. Look at the psychological state of the kids who are in unhappy family.
