[quote=Anonymous]DH and I are considering separating after nearly 5 years of marriage. I won't get into the specifics of why, but it's not communication issues or something that could be fixed through therapy (I asked, he won't go. He says it won't help because he won't compromise). It's pretty fundamental and really requires changing who I am. That being said, we have a 4-month-old daughter and I'm very concerned about her mental/emotional well-being, both now and in the future, should we divorce. Is there anyone out there who has gone through divorce with an infant? If you thought it might eventually come to this in a few years, even if you decided to stick it out now, would you have rather done it when they were young enough to never know the difference? If we separate, we will probably live together until we divorce. That would probably make her about 16 months old when we no longer live together. We will most likely have joint custody. He is a great dad. I guess I just want to hear from people who have gotten through to the other side, maybe with a happy, well-adjusted 6-year-old. Or maybe if you were the product of divorsed parents when you were an infant. [/quote]
