In a bit of a different feel than my other posts. I have a sort of rhetorical question? Anyone out there have any encouraging words/experience for people who separate after a long relationship with a kid in the middle? Do anti-social nerds get another chance at "love"? On the kid side ... how do separated parents try to shield the kid so it keeps living a normal life when both parents separate amicably and both love the kid more than anything in the world? Curious to hear if any people have experience here. Asking .. ehm ... for a friend 😢

Speaking from personal experience as a child of separated parents: they split when I was 10, and it was amicable The key to maintaining a sense of normal was allowing me to see both parents as often as possible, without “visiting hours” or “your turn, my turn” setups. My parents lived in different homes but were always there when I needed them and came together for important moments like birthdays and parent-teacher meetings. I know it can be hard, don't hesitate in sliding in DMs if my perspective can help

Thanks Daniel. Yes exactly what I think at least I would like to avoid is this, "my turn, your turn". In essence we are always going to be her two parents there when she needs us. Thank you for the kind words 🙏
