[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You ask my parents their divorce was friendly. Used a mediator no fighting....ask us kids...it was devastating [/quote] This. Don't delude yourself. You can be polite and avoid litigation but there is nothing "friendly" about the end of their family. Even if you avoid fighting, being a child of divorce is a lifelong burden that will make their lives much more complicated, especially when you are old and they are doing separate eldercare. Divorced people love to tell themselves "children are resilient" as if that makes it not a burden at all. It isn't the divorce itself that wrecks you financially, it's the cost of maintaining two homes for the long term, and separate assited living eventually. A SAHP is a luxury that your familiy may not be able to afford, in the big picture. Same goes for keeping your house.[/quote] "Everything ends badly, otherwise it wouldn't end." - Brian Flanagan[/quote]
