[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know who all these people are with messed up kids from divorce. But I know just as many messed up kids in intact families. It becomes a new life reality. Having the parents not fight is an important first step. [/quote]

It is not divorce that screws kids up. It is the parents. Can be just as screwed up from parents who stayed married (and should have divorced). [/quote]

Agree agree.  My parents divorcing did NOT have long term affect. They were so so mismatched! What was painful was my mother’s remarriage to a man who always resented us. Very difficult to handle as a child with long term affects for our family structure and everlasting changes to my relationship with my mom. [/quote]

I do think divorce itself is very stressful for kids, but the impact of bringing a new boyfriend/girlfriend/adult into the household to be a step-parent multiplies that by a hundred! It is a very scary experience for a kid to have a new adult who is basically a stranger but acting like a parent![/quote]

Stop assuming people who divorce are going to have boyfriends/girlfriends involved. I am not. Never remarrying and no “boyfriend” will meet my kids unless they are adults in college.[/quote]

You are the exception.  [/quote]
