Mine have never been together,they spilt up before I was born.I don't know the story because one will say this but the other says this.
My parents divorced when I was in secondary school. (So when I was around 12-13). I was glad when they did.
Seriously, all he did was watch football on TV. >_>
I can't wait till I move out, I'm actually not keen on either of them. I don't hate them, I just feel I was put in the wrong family. xD

Parents been together for almost 25 years. They've fought, nothing hardcore, in my opinion sometimes you have to get those bottled up emotions past and since they both seem very much in love still, I don't think that it affects their marriage in a negative way. If they did divorce, I would most likely move in with my friend as I love them both and couldn't bear to choose between them. My Dad and I both love sports and a rum on a warm day and me and my Mum discuss politics and such which I enjoy just as much
Thanks. I'm glad your parents are still together and happy, this thread is depressing so it's nice to have a glint of happiness.Hashime said:
My parents divorced my freshman year of high school. Why? Well, because my dad had decided to start a new family behind our backs and lie about it for over 3 years. I haven't talked to him since.
But, every cloud has a silver lining. My mom got remarried. Yes, my stepdad is awesome. Yes, my stepbrothers are awesome. So, it worked out.

My parents divorced when I was 10. I don't see much of my dad since my step mom is an evil, controlling ***** (I hate her more than anyone). I stayed with my mom after the divorce, and my step dad is a cool foreigner.
I took it fairly hard for a short while, but I quickly learned to shrug things off.
When my mom told me my dad wasn't my biological father when I was 12, I said something like: "Wow, really? Hm. Okay then... So, can I go on my Nintendo?". I just don't really dwell on sad stuff like that.

My parents split up when I was around 11(I might of been younger, but the age 11 keeps coming to mind) and didn't get divorced till two years ago when my mum got remarried. My dad is remarrying but I don't know when. (Funny enough, I remember him saying he wouldn't make the "mistake" of getting married again). I have a very bad memory so I really cant answer to as how I coped with it.
I live with my mum and I visit my dad every week, though I have a hard time talking to my dad but that's because I cant speak to adults very well, even my own family, not because I dislike him or anything.
I for some reason cant see myself as being married, so I haven't really thought if I would ever resort to getting a divorce.

My parents got divorced a couple years ago. I don't fully know the details as to why it happened, but that's mainly because I haven't really asked either. This is do to the fact that I want to deal with this in a sensible and unbiased way. From what I know my dad was "paying a little to much attention" to a woman at his work and that he was somewhat fed up with my mother. I don't know if that's true or not (once again I didn't want to hear that much from either parent). I recently met his girlfriend, so things my become a bit more clear to me soon. I'll hold judgement until then.
I'm mainly over by now. At first I was just shocked. To me it seemed like it came out of the blue. The only "warning" that I got was that 3 days earlier my dad acted a little strange when he took me (only me) to go see a movie. Then I got confused over the whole thing and felt somewhat upset by it. Now though I just generally keep on living by not focusing on it. I've accepted that it happened and that there was nothing I could do to stop it from happening. The only time it gets me upset is when either of my parents start subtly talking bad about the other. This generally doesn't happen and when it does its really subtle (like tone of voice subtle), but when they do I quite angrily tell them to shut up so long as I'm around.
I took it much better than my sister did (and she already was having issues hitting puberty and all) and I've probably taken it alot better than most other kids who've had their parents divorce in such a way. Course I'm the same guy who can't wait til I'm away at couple and able to make my own life free from having to deal with the family too much. My advice is to just role with it the best you can. I know it will be hard for awhile to live with it; but if you can just learn to accept it, you'll probably be able to continue your life with as little scars as possible. And don't condemn anyone too fast. Make sure you have all the causes down before you pass judgement on anyone. I know it's not the most comforting advice, but there it is.
I wish you the best of luck in the time ahead.
