I agree. I think that an unhappy marriage is a lot worse for a child than parents not living together, especially if the parents are mature about it. Not meaning to threadjack here, but as a child of divorce (I was 17), after the initial disruption, it was much less stressful for my brother and I after my parents split up. Now I can say I have four great parents instead of two and they actually all hang out together.
