[@anonomous8649]

Yeah I'm sure it really sucks to have divorced parents and I am going to avoid it with my little boy as much as possible. But I have parents who "stayed together for the kids". My mom relied on my abusive dad financially and all that did was emotionally destroy me, put me through physical abuse, and give me trauma that will probably affect me my whole life. If my mom had kicked my dad out a long time ago I feel life would have been better. She always talked about it and gave me hope, but never went through with it and is still with him to this day. My husband is amazing and I have complete trust in him. But if he puts me or my son through any of what my dad did, I'll be out of this marriage faster than he can blink and he knows it. I feel for children whose parents have divorced, but would it really have been worth it for them to stay together despite their issues?

I think the only way it is easier is not hearing the arguments and fighting anymore. Seeing your parents hate each other and then it gets filtered to you is so hard. Divorce is hard too but at least there’s some separation and healing starting. I wish we all could make it work but unfortunately not every relationship can

[@TheReal_happy40]

It's like this for most of us, but it's still better than having them both in the same house, hating each other in front of you. You know, ever since I was born, I've never seen my parents love each other, it was hate since the beginning. The divorce happened when I was 12, I'm 23 now and have temper issues, love issues, and sometimes when I have to remember those times they argued, I still cry.

[@Dr_zevia]

Sometimes it’s that the parents argue so much and have such a bad relationship, it’s better to get divorced.

[@AnnaMerteuil]

@@TheReal_happy40 I don't remember much of my childhood (I was young when they took separate ways, like 5), I have witnessed some arguments between my parents before I was 5 (I don't vividly or vaguely remember them consciously), then saw him be happy with the woman of his life, my sister and I do have good relationship with her (even with our sometimes hot tempers). Once, we argued and I said to her how I felt about the arguments I've witnessed (before my dad planned doing it properly). I agree the divorce is easier than watch them unhappy together (plus, my dad has always made sure he had the best words possible for my mum, defending her when others made mean comments about her, made sure they could still be parents together besides this divorce and the consequences on our family). But I still have trust and love issues as a grown adult after being in this mess this young P.S : I always had a good relationship with my dad (who's been dead now by 6 years) and he always made sure we were in his life and worried when we had an argument with our stepmom

“Your just like your dad” I get that and “your just like your sister” the worst part about it is they say it so much I just get used to being treated like shit when they are mad at eachother

[@VioletteCreates]

When they talk about how much they hate the other parent, and then you get in a fight and they tell you that your just like the other parent 💔

"you’re just like your dad” I hate when either of my parents say this about my other parent i get so frustrated and with both of my parents somehow.

[@sreekuttysreekutty4552]

True 🙂

[@-Sam69]

It’s only in America where adults can’t swallow their pride and live in a “bad marriage” for their child. In EVERY poor country where man can’t live without woman and woman can’t without men has nearly 0% divorce rate. Parents are adults and they need to sacrifice for their children’s future and live no matter what. It’s selfish of you to birth a child and divorce because you’re too good.

[@YBYLOL]

@@-Sam69 I’m sorry but that’s just not true. My parents got divorced and I’m sooo happy for them since they are both very happy now, they used to always fight and feel unhappy, they got divorced when I was 8, they were together for about 25 years, they got both of my brothers to live on their own. They really did more than they needed to, and they just couldn’t live together anymore. It did change a lot but I got used to it. But people divorce and it happens

[@YBYLOL]

@@-Sam69 and if you live in a poor country then you should think about the person you’re gonna marry and how you see yourself with them for the rest of your life.

[@EmilySnider-tk1pe]

The “just like your dad” comment always hits the hardest. The person they were able to fall out of love with, the person they can’t stand, the person they’ll call the worst names… the person they chose. And now you’re being told you’re like them, as they pack you up and send you away. I’m almost 38 and that shit still cuts deep.
