[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see a number of post where people say they are waiting a couple years for kids to get older before divorcing, but my understanding was the younger they are the less emotional disorders they end up having b/c of the divorce. Does any have good research papers etc that support older is better for divorce? Excluding your kids being 20+ adults when you divorce.[/quote]

No age because divorce always affects children.  I know someone whose parents divorced when he was 33 and he was devastated.[/quote]

At 33 presumably he has lived through some life and understands divorce is sometimes the best of an array of crappy options. [/quote]agree that it is devastating at any age, but for different reasons. When you are older, you then understand that one or both of your parents are very flawed and did not belong in that parental pedestal that you put them on. When you are young you feel abandoned and without a foundation. [/quote]
