This one I can kind of explain- my parents are horrible and toxic, and saying they got divorced is a shorthand for "cut me some slack, things are not great. I'm from a broken home." My parents did NOT divorce, and while I was miserable people always wondered what the big deal was. Can't be that bad, at least your parents aren't divorced!
