[quote=Anonymous]I think it's better as an adult. I'm more able to cope with it. Look at it this way-- you're going to be an adult child of divorce either way. Would you like to also be a minor child of divorce too, with joint custody and everything? It's A, or A+B. Which is worse? I say A is better than A+B. It's upsetting when your parents behave badly, or when you dislike their new partners, or they behave irrationally and start banging all their friends. It's hard when you have to choose between your parents on holidays, and every visit contains a new partner and potentially their children, who you might not like. Or when they blow off your children in favor of their step-grandchildren. Or when they're making bad financial decisions. Divorce is not just a personal, emotional decision. It's a practical decision with practical implications for the whole family.[/quote]
