| - "Snuffy's Parents Get a Divorce" is an episode of the children's television program Sesame Street. Produced in 1992, it never aired because tests showed several unintended negative effects. Sesame Street has had a history of presenting difficult topics as part of its affective curriculum goals, including death, marriage, childbirth, and disaster. Extensive research was done before these episodes were written and produced, to ascertain their focus, and after they aired, to analyze the effect they had on viewers, and that was the case for "Snuffy's Parents Get a Divorce". The show's producers had expressed a desire to produce the episode as early as 1989, and they were convinced that it was a topic they should address after the US Census Bureau reported that 40% of American children had experienced divorce. The producers chose to present the Muppet Mr. Snuffleupagus ("Snuffy") and his family's experience of divorce. The episode was written by staff writer Norman Stiles, who also wrote the 1983 episode in which Mr. Hooper's death was explained. Every word of the divorce episode was reviewed by the Children's Television Workshop's (CTW) advisory board, content experts, and developmental psychologists. After tests showed that their young viewers were confused by the episode and did not understand important concepts about divorce, the producers decided to not air it, despite the investment they had made. This marks the only time the show's producers made this kind of decision, and was cited as an example of the producer's practice of "listening to the voices of children and by putting their needs first", despite the costs. Sesame Street did not address the topic of divorce until November 2012, when they produced a video for limited audiences titled Little Children, Big Challenges: Divorce as part of their resiliency initiative.

Sesame Street tem um histórico de apresentar tópicos difíceis como parte de suas metas afetivas de currículo, incluindo morte, casamento, parto e desastre. Foi realizada uma extensa pesquisa antes que esses episódios fossem escritos e produzidos, para determinar seu foco e, depois que eles foram ao ar, analisar o efeito que eles tiveram sobre os telespectadores, e esse foi o caso de "Snuffy's Parents Get a Divorce". Os produtores do programa expressaram o desejo de produzir o episódio já em 1989, e estavam convencidos de que esse era um tópico que eles deveriam abordar depois que o Departamento do Censo dos Estados Unidos informou que 40% das crianças americanas haviam experienciado um divórcio. Os produtores optaram por apresentar o Muppet Mr. Snuffleupagus ("Snuffy") e a experiência de divórcio de sua família. O episódio foi escrito pelo escritor da equipe Norman Stiles, que também escreveu o episódio de 1983 em que a morte de Mr. Hooper foi explicada. Cada palavra do episódio foi revisada pelo conselho consultivo da Children's Television Workshop (CTW), especialistas em conteúdo e psicólogos de desenvolvimento. Depois que os testes mostraram que seus jovens espectadores ficaram confusos com o episódio e não entenderam conceitos importantes sobre o divórcio, os produtores decidiram não transmiti-lo, apesar do investimento que haviam feito. Foi a primeira e única vez que os produtores do programa tomaram esse tipo de decisão e foram citados como um exemplo da prática do produtor de "ouvir as vozes das crianças e colocar suas necessidades em primeiro lugar", apesar dos custos. Sesame Street não abordou o divórcio até novembro de 2012, quando produziram um vídeo para públicos limitados intitulado Little Children, Big Challenges: Divorce como parte de sua iniciativa de resiliência.
