[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are well adjusted post-divorce. I think there were two keys: One is that very soon after we told them, things changed and we went right into the new routine. Less than a week. So they didn't have to spend a lot of time worrying about how things would be different, there wasn't months of being in flux. We got all our ducks in a row - telling the kids was literally the last thing we did. Two is that they see us getting along. We both go to school things, birthday parties, etc. When he drops the kids off it's not awkward if they ask him to come in to show him how they rearranged their bedroom or want his help with a school project. [/quote] That's great but your divorce will impact your kid long after their birthday party and school project days are over. I'm not saying you were wrong to get divorced, because divorce is the right and best option in many cases, but the impact lasts beyond the elementary years.[/quote]
