Fifty percent of all North-American children will witness the divorce of their parents. Almost half of them will also see the breakup of a parent’s second marriage. (Furstenberg and others -Life Course-) With those statistics, I ended up being within that 25% of the second marriage. I was able to learn a lot from being in that percentage. Remembering what I went through I will be able to explain the effect of my parent’s divorce on me from living arrangements, celebrating holidays to overcoming the damage.
