I was shocked but really it made sence. Things were calm, mom was happier, she felt safe because she was with me.

What are the deep issues, not the surface ones that cause all the bickering? |

Children: One boy 8, twin girls 7. | Re: Is this even possible? | | I agree that you should never argue in front of your children unless they are going to see compromise and a healthy solution to the matter you are argueing about. Yulia, your children are still very young and would handle a divorce just fine. When they get closer to five then they emotionally can become a wreck and understand a bit more. The older, the harder it is. Fooser, my marriage is a pain in the arse that's why he lives four hours away You have to out smart them and get them to move away thinking it's for a job..hahaha No way in hell could I ever live with my ps again. no no nooooooooooo I love him as a friend and have been through all that arguing and fighting and even filed three times and I do not EVER want to go back there. We are friends (sometimes with benefits but I have to drink a few) lol |
