Answer to Question 1

Marital success is defined to include adjustment, happiness, and permanence. Adjustment refers to the ease at which couples are comfortable with their roles and work together to solve problems. Happiness is expressed as satisfaction with the relationship.

Answer to Question 2

Research shows that leaving a bad marriage because it is good for the children is not true. Even in the most successful divorce, it is the children who lose. It is also true that children coming from divorced homes are at increased risk in their own future relationships. In addition, the economic consequences are hard on the children. On the other hand, the idea of staying together for the sake of the children has lost validity in America. The effects on children may be immediately negative, but the long-term effects are mixed. Children are better off out of the home when conflicting parents are abusive. If the divorce promotes parental happiness, children should also benefit.
