+302 You don’t care how many extra family members, Christmases and birthday parties you get. It still sucks to have divorced parents, amirite?

I would rather my parents be divorced. My dad's an asshole. And I'm saying that because I'm grounded or something but because he is vicious and cruel to my mother and me.

Better than having no parents.

I prefer having my parents divorced because if they lived together they would probably kill each other.

I dunno..... I don't really feel bad for myself for having divorced parents. So many people have it way worse. Besides, if my parents hadn't have gotten a divorce, I wouldn't have gotten to live some of the amazing experiences that I've had.

Yeah. In my case I don't even get the extra parties and presents. My dad's a bum.

My parents are divorced but they're still great friends. When I was really little, I would sit outside their closed bathroom door listening to them fight. Now my mom bought a house about a minute away from my dad's and they get a long so well. I'm so lucky that things are this good for me. I know a girl whose dad married someone who is closer to her age than his and has four children with her dad, all named after the place they were conceived in. But anyway, my parents split up in the best way and they're around each other a lot, and they joke about what went wrong in their marriage and memories from it. In fact we all had dinner together tonight and that's not unusual. I'm so happy how things turned out after getting the original news about them. :)

Kinda.. It's just inconvenient sometimes. Like not being able to see my dad all the time because sometimes my stepmom will tell him "she doesn't feel" like having me over. Or the fact that my dad can never keep a job so he doesn't get money to buy me things that I need like most dads do.

Yeah... I don't think most people even get double everything once parents divorce, kids may get even less because things get more expensive after hiring two lawyers, paying two rents, etc. If your parents hate each other then divorce might be a good thing, but it'd still be nice if they weren't.

I'd rather have my parents divorced than fighting all the time and screaming at eachother.
