[quote=Anonymous]Mine were 5 and 7 when we separated/divorced. They are now 12 and 14 and barely remember being an intact family. We do 50-50 custody and they have been relatively unphased by it. Your children's ability to adapt to this will be DIRECTLY related to your ability to coparent effectively and without conflict. The kids need to feel free to have a loving relationship with both parents, regardless of how you feel about each other. Some of the downsides: you will have no say over what the kids eat, their schedule, or house rules when they are with their dad. My kids had been very active and thin their whole lives, packed on the pounds in an alarming way the 1st year we separated, along with their dad who packed on at least 50 lbs. They were eating all fast food and junk food all the time. [/quote]
