[quote=Anonymous]Staying married doesn't necessarily help the kids, but if it's not harmful to them, it may still be the better choice. My parents fell out of love, but stayed married in a low-conflict relationship, and now that I'm older I really appreciate it. It spared me all the hassles of joint custody and parental remarriage and stepsiblings, and it meant our family still had a little bit of financial security. I would have really hated to have to change schools or divide holidays or give up seeing one parent or the other every day. They're still together in a low-conflict way, and while it would be nicer if they were more loving to each other, I understand the reasons for their choice and it's very easy for me to live with.[/quote]
