This paper targets at understanding the causal effects of maternal marital instability on children's marriage dissolutions through exploring a natural experiment and implementing IV approach, the forced rustication during 1968-1978 in China. With the 2008 and 2010 waves of Chinese Family Panel Survey, significant estimates imply that in urban China, one extra year of forced immigration has increased mother's marital instability by 1.5%, further contributed to doubling the risk of her children to encounter marital instability. Contemporary comparisons show that, on average, the sent-down parents experienced more marital instability by 2%; married two years later; married older spouses; value relatively less in spousal intimacy. The latter two are proved to be significant mediators
