2. I have no problem with humanity defined in 10 truths … but I think if we defined them in or 3 or 4 it would be easier to remember.

3. Let the record show that I won this thread via superior information. My studies supercede the much smaller, narrow study Tenny posted.
   Tenny believes that I, Psychology Today, and the psychology industry are involoved in a conspiracy to spread political incorrectness.
   Here is more support for my position, I’ve bolded the important part for the politically correct:
   “Using data from the 1993 Utrecht Study of Adolescent Development, a longitudinal panel study, the Dutch professors studied a sample of 2,636 parent-child pairs to explore the emotional adjustment of Dutch young people, ages 12-24, in four different family types: divorced families and two-parent families ranked according to high, medium-, and low-marital quality. They found that adolescents who grew up in “post-divorce” families, as well as “martially distressed” intact families, experienced significantly less well-being than adolescents living with parents with medium- and high-marital quality.
   Nevertheless, daughters were found to be affected by parental marital quality and divorce more than were sons. The mean emotional adjustment of girls was lower than that of boys in all four categories. Growing up in a divorced family was found to be “especially detrimental” for daughters, as “parental resources” were able to offset the negative effect of divorce on the emotional adjustments of sons.
   In addition, while adolescent well-being declined for both boys and girls as they grew older in all four family categories, the decline was actually greater for girls than for boys. The inverse association between well-being and age did not vary by marital quality or divorce, indicating that children do not outgrow the negative effects of divorce or low-marital quality. In fact, the researchers found just the opposite: that the effects of divorce on adolescent children were long term. The study also found that low-marital quality, often a predictor of a pending divorce, yielded similar effects on adolescent girls as did divorce itself, suggesting that “the process of negative divorce effects may indeed be at work long before a possible divorce takes place.”

   PS Kate, please consider banning left wing trolls like ET and Tenny who act like jackasses and harrass the few remaining conservatives here. ET’s never posted a fact in her life yet she demands others prove the Earth isn’t flat. That’s a trollin’. Boot her ass and your site will be better for it.

4. ahh, andrew, poor andrew, don’t despair. Your current google search came up with irrelevant data.
   You see, the Truth that you are supporting, is “having sons reduces the likelihood of divorce”.
   Your google article is discussing the psychological effects of divorce on children, and is concluding that girls are more affected than boys. So….andrew…this conclusion is very different from the Truth that Having Sons reduces the likelihood of divorce.
   Get it? No? Careful – don’t make the logical error of ‘affirming the consequent’.
   And by the way, posting a link doesn’t validate a conclusion. You see, in the Real World, there are conclusions, for and against, on just about everything. So, posting a link (for OR against) doesn’t validate your opinion. Sorry, andrew.
   Try again. But I do admire your self-definition as a Hero and a Winner. Neat.

5. Just an observation: Andrew wants to be known was the “winner” on this thread. And here I thought it was a discussion. Next thing you know he will want to prove that his Google is bigger than everyone else.
