The kids will be fine Life is too short Don't you think that we should have never been married? We are best friends, not spouses I feel lighter now we are separated (NO s*it Sherlock, you don't have to deal with anything anymore...)
Your S14 sounds like he is working it out. Remember, at this age, it's all about them; not negatively, they just can't help it. So he sounds like he is doing okay. My S16 had meltdown a few weeks ago-we cried, but he insists he is alright with breakup. I have to say though-once again, my sitch is a bit different, since I have for all intents and purposes been sole parenting for years. I really cannot imagine how difficult it is when spouse moves out and leaves that huge space in the kids' lives. All I do know is that every single LBS on this board has stepped up through the pain, sadness and anger and continued to be the most awesome parent a person can be in these situations.
I am in awe of you, Melissa and every single parent who tries his or her damnedest every day. I raise my glass
