[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am wondering what you think is worse on children for couples who are divorced.

Do you think living in the same house together, separate rooms, where the children know that Mom and Dad are Co-parenting together but not romantically together anymore. Not having to switch house holds every weekend/holidays. Seeing their Parents parent together, and interact with the kids together. But no physical affection.

Switching households every other weekend, knowing Parents aren't together, but not having to see them interact.

If you are from a Divorced family and did one of the above but preferred the other, why and how did it affect you? [/quote]

My wife and I have lived in separate rooms for 2 years.  Not romantically involved by her choice but we talked about maintain the family structure because we have four kids.  It was important to us to stay together and we do show physical affection (minimal).  I know I have been unhappy for a long time but we agreed to see other people but not bring them to the house.  It has worked for us.  Communication that we lacked after 15 years of marriage is better now because we know that our kids need to see both parents instead of every other week.  It is not for everybody but it works for our family.    [/quote]
