[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on what is going on in the family.I begged my parents to get divorced at at minimum get separated when I was 8. They waited 'til we were both out of the house.Hate their decision, nobody benefited.My sister also hates her childhood when it comes to family dynamics. All we wanted was peace and quiet and that our parents were happy. We got no peace and quiet, and mom was miserable as hell.[/quote]

Yeah, I find it interesting when people say they are staying together for the kids.  I don't think people realize that kids notice when things are tense, and it does have an effect on kids.

But there's a difference between a situation in which you are just bored/underwhelmed with your wife/husband and a situation in which there is active animosity (arguing, et cetera).  Even if there isn't arguing, but there is hatred, kids notice.  (but if it's just boredom/lack of sex or passion, I don't think it affects kids.)

But in cases where there is real anger or tension between a couple, it actually is probably better (if financially possible) for them to separate.

In a number of cases, though, the financial part is the kicker.   [/quote]
