Final Answer : D, Explanation :  According to research, children of divorced parents today are less likely to divorce than were children whose parents divorced in the 1970s. This may be due to several factors such as changes in social attitudes towards divorce, increased awareness of the impact of divorce on children, and more resources available to support children and families of divorce. This trend towards lower divorce rates among children of divorce is expected to continue in the future.
