I answered "Happily married", though its been more like an OK marriage. I guess all relations have thair ups and downs, and I could say if it wasn't for my dads extreme loyalty and ability to calm my mum down when she threw her tantrums, I guess they would have divorced. Now they seem pretty tight, and they are also doing pretty well economically, especially since my mum changed from teaching to school administration which pays much better. As for the effects on me and my sister... well...
