I know of a certain young man from a divorced home. He is not your model student or popular guy. I know for a fact that he has k’sharim with basically all the rebbeim for the last 2 years of elementary school and now mesivta. He is always looked out for by his rebbeim and I know that his peers respect him just as much as any other guy in his Yeshiva. Baruch Hashem he is in a very chashuve yeshiva (that he had no problem getting into) and succeeding quite well. While i’m sure there is pity for him, he never experienced disdain for his unfortanate home. While in discussions l’toeles like sheduchim he might be slighted (do you want your kid marrying a child who’s parents were probably yelling at eachother for a large part of his childhood?) unless there are bad middos involved i dont see when they might be treated as ‘2nd class’
