My child seems to be in a reasonably healthy relationship. It's a wonder since I put them through a few bad ones, but I eventually left. They've been in a stable relationship for five years. I don't pry much and I pray they aren't staying because they feel they'd flounder, otherwise. Their partner is a good person, in not implying they aren't. Compatibility is a thing, common interests are necessary.

Yeah, it's possible for sure. I know I for one have issues caused by my parents constant arguing and issues (and they somehow aren't divorced, though I believe that should be). Sometimes people go through hell and come out better for it, but I don't think we should expect that.

Oh I'm amazed. They're truly accomplishing the Great Work.
