I can't really offer any advice since I've never been divorced let alone married but this is truly the worst part of it, the kids. I know my little brothers (now 11 & 13) had to go through this one week on, one week off stuff for the last 6 years and they hate it. It makes them feel like they truly don't have a home because they are moving every week. I know parents want to be apart of their child's life as much as possible and child support can be ridiculous but stability for children is just as important if not more important. It sucks so many kids have to grow up this way now.
I hope you two can sort it out and if you can't be friends at least be civil around each other when the kids are around and try not trash talking each other to the kids because it will only make the kids confused and feel like they need to pick a side in the fight when really they should just be kids and not have to be mommy or daddy's therapist.
Not trying to be a Debbie Downer but just having two little brothers going through this right now I feel for them and it makes me wish other kids didn't have to go through it.
