Well... Duh. I would've loved to have two parents who loved each other and took me on fun family trips! But that wasn't an option, since they had an awful relationship.

Also, your study doesn't seem to have any comparison to the impact of abusive relationships vs. father absence, which is what I was talking about. If you can find anything about that, I'd love to see it.
