It would not be fair to penalize the children because their parents couldn't make their marriage work. So, yes, the children are still sealed to their parents even if the parents' sealing is dissolved. ******************* "Rodric Johnson: Their is no seal for the children to be sealed to. That is why it is important that parents keep their marriages." Roderic, I suggest that you look at the following link. In it a former assistant to the Quorum of the Twelve addresses this question and says basically what I wrote. http://tinyurl.com/nrthf

Children will not be sealed to their PARENTS-- that is plural--if the sealing is canceled. Though they hold the status of a child under the covenant with the rights and all, those who continue in righteousness will be either given to another righteous ancestor if the two parents are both unrepentant or given to either of the parents--who MUST have another union with a new spouse. There are NO exceptions. That is why it is important to work on marriages. A righteous child does not have the option to be sealed to one parent. There must be two. That child cannot be sealed to an unrighteous parent either, because the sealing will take no effect because of the wickedness of the parents. No unclean thing can enter the celestial kingdom. Thankfully, the gospel of Jesus Christ is one of forgiveness and repentance. How absurd would it be if there were no consequences to the actions of wicked parents? If there was no such consequences, why did the children of Adam and Eve not get the right to be born in Eden and live there. It was the parents that transgressed, not the children.
