[quote=Anonymous]Another staying for the kids. Not sure yet how it's working out. I'm trying to focus on not engaging with his fighting and just responding very rationally, or with "That's not an appropriate way to speak to a family member." or something like that, so that the kids at least grow up knowing that screaming at people is not appropriate. Sadly, even though I think he's a jerk, my kids really like him, and would be really bummed to have to split their time between us. Plus, given the number of kids we have, and some other issues, it would be logistically extremely difficult to have a one parent household (absent a Katie Holmes type divorce settlement, which isn't in the cards). I don't think there are easy answers, and everyone needs to weigh the pros and cons for themselves and their kids.[/quote]
