Parents should not stick together for the rest of their life! (35)
Tamarin seriously.... should be judge all situations by this standard...not ALL breakups are as a result of domestic violence... of course if their is violence in the home.. get out quick!!!.. I don't see that situation as the norm... many relationships struggle.. couples will have challenges, hard times, they might get bored, the passion might wane a little.. this is not a reason to throw in the towel in my estimation... this should be the time when you fight for ur marriage... (those I know who did are reaping the rewards of perseverance)...if their is domestic violence it would be in the kids interest to get out quick...

Tamarin: Children should not dictate that a couple stays together...
Not a healthy, positive and nurturing enviro if the couple are not getting on.

Right but you (as I) look for the best in people.

Capone1: Well, I am not sure about you folks but it aint good for a wife and a husband to stick together for the rest of their life. I think when they feel they have reached it they should simply accept to get separated and each to find their better life .
Marriage life is no different from a person owning a car and drive it for so long without wanting to exchange it for a latest model. I think it is really sick seeing man and wife living together until they are old!. They eventually becomes like brothers and sisters because they no longer interested in love but just care for each others.
We should get a better life. Enjoy it while we steel alive! Who knows what’s gonna happen when you die or how it's gonna be! .

I see the majority of the posts states "do not stay together for the children".
The thread author never mentions staying together for children. My intrepretation of his post was that eventually they're just gonna want a new model cause they're sick of the one they got. Which would follow the path that this poster seems to revisit frequently.
Perhaps his word "Parents" lends everyone to assume he meant for the kids sake?
Perhaps I misunderstood?

Tamarin: So if a man beats his wife black and blue she should stay for the sake of the kids????
Hell no!!!!!! She should do like a friend of mine did.. .357, one shot, right thru the heart..
True story, she was charged with Murder 1 and got off because of self defense..

I so agree. Having just seperated after 20 years and 3 lovely kids... since the seperation the kids have been fine. They have adjusted. They will never always be happy that mum and dad are not together anymore.. but it is much better for me and my wife that this happened because of the damage it was doing to our children. No more arguments. The kids not trying to feel responsible for having to keep mmum and dad together.
The children take priority in terms of their happiness.
Going seperate ways is sometimes inevitable and indicates that the partners have long outgrown each other. I was so unhappy in my marriage and since the split I am fine. The ex is taking time getting used to it. But as i said the kids are doing well. They do not need a toxic relatinship to imprint on them that what is what partners do as normal.

They don't need to stay married forever but its nice if they stay friends. I'm friends with mine and NEITHER of us has a copy of our divorce decree. Kids stay with me for school and most of the time when not in school go with mom. We have no set times and always call and compromise. Preference goes to the parent with out of town trips.
The only disadvantage is we are all good friends - my law sign is still on her dental office and even 7 years after the divorce many think we are still married.
Why? on my part its because I do divorces and see so many rotten people use their kids as weapons. I also know we were opposites and though opposites attract -they don't too often get along. On her side she doesn't like to fight, she's smart and happy with our arrangement and also knows I'm a somewhat bad-tempered attorney lol

Ok.. what are we talking about here? It doesn't sound like your saying stay together for the sake of the kids... it sounds like your saying... hey, get married and when you get sick of each other, trade each other in and start over? Is that what I am reading?
I do agree that if things are not working out, don't stay together for the kids. They will be happier if their parents are happy apart than miserable together.
But if your saying "trade her in" like a new car.... then don't bother getting married. Just live with someone and don't make the committment. Be sure to be honest about your intentions up front before someone thinks they are committing themselves to a life time partner instead of a 2 year lease.

Most parents love their children more than anything.. so putting their kids at the forefront of their decision making is a pretty reasonable thing to do in my estimation.. also, according to my observations.. marriages that overcome and endure challenges are the strongest and most loving..
So if a man beats his wife black and blue she should stay for the sake of the kids????
