After divorcing four years ago, Janie and George established two households with Janie having sole custody of the children. However, maintaining these two households has diminished the income of the divorced parents to such an extent that they have trouble "making ends meet"and in providing necessities for the children. Janie must now work a second job, which has added stress to her life and disrupted her ability to be an effective parent. In addition, she and George are still engaged in the same conflicts that they had when they were married. In this case, most family experts would say:
A) that the best choice for the children would have been for Janie and George to have retained their . unhappy marriage rather than divorcing.
B) that it will take at least five years after the divorce for the conflict between the parents to end and for life to stabilize.
C) that the children are always better off with their parents being divorced than as an intact, unhappy couple.
D) none of the above.
