Whoever the parent is that quit on the family should get cancer of the arse and mouth.

I used to feel like the OP- kids know, just get a divorce. But now that I'm older and know many more divorced people I can see why couples stay together. I have yet to talk to any divorced person that doesn't say it's one of the most horrible experiences possible- regardless of how worth it it may be. Don't think I'd want to put kids thru that.

Wah the kids are fricked up because you stayed together!
Wah the kids are fricked up because you divorced.
Dammed if you do, damned if you don't.
I say to hell with the kids and do whatever makes your dick hard, like your secretary.

Depends on how the parents handle this and if they both truly know the deal.. I know a couple who seems heading down this path, they don't argue anymore and quite frankly seem to enjoy their marriage once agian knowing it has an expiration date..

Every Executive I know is divorced. I really dont think companies GAF if you are divorced.

I don't know what it's like to be married. Hell, I don't know what it's like to even have a real serious relationship. But what I do know is if my marriage is anything like my parents is, I'll be a happy man. Yeah they have had fights, yeah they have had different opinions on certain subjects. But at the end of the day I can tell that they have a good foundation based on love, respect, honesty, and a willingness to sacrifice for each other and their children. They are the perfect example of what a marriage should be.
Moral of my story is...don't marry somebody unless you have a good foundation based on respect, honesty, and above all, love.

Doesn't work like that. Get married and get back to us.

You never kow what goes on in a family or the dynamics of a relationship, until you do be slow to judge.

Kids are happier. I'm happier for the most part.
Guess she's happier now too. That ain't my job anymore.
I used to rail against it but I'm so glad I didn't stay in a relationship where I was miserable and unloved and sexless now.

It's a catch twenty two, people will judge regardless. As long as the adult parties involved have the kids' interests at heart, no one else should give a shite.

Yup

It's tough also because the ex will probably remarry. Who knows of the new persons values, lifestyle, etc. and will be partially responsible for helping raise your own kids.

Once you've lost the battle what's the point? You're living in a shell. Without love, it's not a home. Better to give your kids all the love without having someone else suck out all your positive energy and leave you only with the negative.

I could never watch another man raise my kids. End of story.

Only with the negative.
You're ok with another man raising you child? Some people are will to make that sacrifice to be in their child's life.

As long as you aren't openly fighting, it's probably better. Divorce is one of the most brutal things a child can go through.
This is the correct and only non trashy answer. Divorce is one of the trashiest things two people can do.

Wasn't my choice. If I hadn't filed she would have and no telling what kind of lawyer she would have gotten to rake me over the coals.
I came out smelling like a rose financially and that's a whole lot better for my kids. Easier to not be bitter.
And am I okay with it? No. But what am I going to do? I got 50/50 custody. That's more than many get. I've got a decent working relationship and there's no fighting.
If she would have been willing to work on it I would have gladly done so. She wouldn't. Trying to hold on to a woman who has already let go is like holding water in your hands.
