[quote=Anonymous]First, I'd think twice about whether divorce will be easier on your kids if you wait until they're in college. That's still a pretty emotionally complicated time for kids, and separating, changing up their home, and everything else can be a big deal for them, creating anxiety about what else is going to change as soon as they leave the house. There's never a good time to divorce relative to the emotional impact on your kids, so I wouldn't assume that waiting is better.

Second, when it comes to the financial side of it, if you decide to wait until the kids are in college to divorce, I hope you've adjusted your retirement planning to account for needing two wholly separate retirements down the road. That's a piece a lot of people don't think about until they divorce when they expect to be about ten years from retirement and suddenly realize that what would have been sufficient for two people retiring together isn't nearly enough for two people retiring separately.
