I'm glad you found someone. It would have been tough to grow up with that. It's no wonder you don't want to go through the same thing. It can be really traumatic kids, to have their lives turned upside down like that. It doesn't have to be like that though. There are just as many children of divorce that go on to have happy healthy marriages. My parents are still married but their relationship is dysfunctional. It took a minute to break out of some of those habits but it can be done.
