[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Young adulthood/college is known as one of the worst times to divorce when it comes to making the adult child feel completely unmoored and losing their entire family/childhood. You need to read more about this. [/quote] I have two friends whose parents divorced when they were in college and both really took it hard. I think part of it was that both of these sets of parents had low conflict marriages, so, the divorce was a big surprise making the adult kids feel like their "family/childhood was all a lie". If OP is in a low conflict marriage, I'd start gently confiding that the marriage isn't a happy one, so, the kids can at least be mentally prepared.[/quote]
