[quote=Anonymous]I live in NW DC. All the moms I know have done fine post-divorce and most of them need to work. I went back to work after my divorce, and I love my career. Divorce is so hard, especially if it's for one of the most common reasons: infidelity, alcohol/addiction, or mental illness. But if you were dealing with an ex with these problems during the marriage, chances are that you'll do better once you get away from the person. All that energy you once spent focused on helping/fixing him/her can be spent on yourself, your career and you kids. I don't know any divorced moms who are struggling badly five years post-divorce - not in my area - but that's just because we live in a bubble here. I've been happy to find that employers don't really care if you stayed at home with your kids for. while. They care about your skills, your brain, your maturity, and what you can do for the job.
