broken families

[Yuri-G]

ok, so...

please post (1) if you are: in a family of mother + father + children = not divorced. one child with undivorced parents fits here.

please post (2) if you are anything else, and explain.

call this a social experiment.

[Yuri-G]

me, my mother died when I was five. brain tumour. so I guess I fit in option #2.

[Julian]

parents divorced

[Athas]

So they just have to be legally married or...?

[Eliseos]

Mom and dad divorced when I was 2, I have a sister 8 years older than me, so they divorced when she was 10. My dad subsequently remarried about 6 years ago, and presently they are separated and going through the divorce process. I've always lived with my mom and never really felt connected with my dad, if that's what you are looking for.

[Yuri-G]

interesting.. non-nuclear families leading so far. which I would have expected.

but honestly. I'm not looking for anything. everybody, mom or dad or neither, is a valid human being. I'm just curious to see how we all came to be. I have a theory that times, they are a-changing.

Me my mom dad and two brothers who recently moved out. Interesting note here to add: my best friend and two closest friends have a similar life. Two parents not divorced with 2 siblings. Didn't realize that until a drunken conversation. All of our girlfriends are the complete opposite though.

Me and close friends: category 1
Our girlfriends: category 2

I was unusual growing up. My parents were married. They're still married. Most of my extended family are never divorced too. Both sets of grandparents were married right up to the end. Of all my aunts and uncles I have two aunts that got divorced and have been remarried for 20+ years each. I'm married. My husband's parents are still married. Both sets of his grandparents never divorced. He has a few more divorces in his family, but also a lot of still marrieds.

[Tyche]

I'm married with children

[Tyche]

Oh, this is for parents?

Parents divorced when I was 9. Sister lived with mom, I lived with dad. My parents have always gotten along great, and still do to this day. Reason for divorce was just them being young and immature.

[Sol-Blackguy]

Bastard child, my parents split when I was 5 and my mom hates my dad's guts. My dad on the other hand gets around more than the milk man. On a side note, I have an estranged twin brother I met during football camp when I lived with my dad during high school.

I'm in what I would consider your typical family, although there's no 'love' at all between siblings, same for my parents.
(I wish my sister would just drop dead at times, maybe H1N1 will be the answer >.>)

[Sirrus_Asura]

Bastard(I think? Never really understood the term). Dad was shot in the head when I was 7 and my Mom & Step dad divorced after like 8 years when I was 16. Now she dates some Ex-DEA fucker. We get along alright.

[pohibaba]

(2)

Parents divorced when I was 17. My Dad got married again a few years later, but that marriage only lasted a couple of years. He's now living with a different woman. My Mom hasn't gotten remarried.

[SephYuyX]

Functional family here.

Parents met in HS, married after college, 1 son, 2 daughters.
Same deal w/ Grand and Great Grand (dont recall earlier). Knew each other at a young age, married, had kids, still together or dead.

Never been a marital/family issue in my entire extended family.

[zoobernut]

I am almost the same as Pohibaba, my parents divorced when I was 17 about 6 months before I moved out to college. My dad remarried and was with his new wife 2 years and then divorced her. Now both my parents are alone.

They were married for 25 years before this happened.

[Ishido]

Parents still married.
