Grr how to cope with divorce at age1?

My parents divorced when I was 1 and well my mom walked out on my dad . Now that I know I don't know how to cope with that ...Grr how to cope with divorce at age1?
My parents divorced when I was 3 months old and my life was hell because of their never ending war. I have a child now and unfortunately his father and I we're not getting along so we split when our son was 4 months old. This was my choice based on my childhood. I promised myself that I would never let my son live through what I had to. It still hurts me from what my parents did everyday. I make a point of not exposing our son to the same crap.





He asked me not long ago why his daddy and I are not together. My answer was and always will be ';I would rather you grow up knowing daddy and I apart and happy than together and fighting all the time';. He also knows that his father and I are civil and do things together with him on birthdays and holidays and that no matter what all he needs to remember is that even though I'm not with his daddy, I will always love his daddy for what he gave me... HIM.





In other words... live what you learn... and learn from other's mistakes. The decision your mother made was soley hers... and your father I assume is the one that raised you... and you sound like HE did a great job...Grr how to cope with divorce at age1?

Are yu still involved with both parents? I am sure you are in your teens by now..be hapy they divorced than for whatever the reason was..isn't it better mom left or maybe they would be fighting and you would have a bad childhood..so its ok
Well, it didn't bother you before.


Did this revelation change your perception of reality?


I didn't think so. Relax and smoke a bowl.
You didnt mention how old you are now, but did you ever ask her just why she walked out on the marriage?
