    Not having experienced either I would have to say, it would be if I got a divorce, but as a child I think it would have been very traumatic if my parents had.  But really hard to say,  I know people where getting divorced was the best thing for them and others it was an all out war...

    Hi Jenny! Well my parents never divorced and I've been divorced more than once. I wanted out. So my divorces were not traumatic for me at all. But I'm sure if my parents had divorced it would have upset my entire world. I think it is always hard on children. Thank you for your reply and Happy Friday! :)
