mine got divorced when I was six and dad remarried when I was seven. was the flower girl for that wedding. we stayed with dad and mom moved to another state, so we couldn't see her that often. She's re-married three times, second husband died, third was a frickin idiot, and the fourth one I actually like.They've been married now for about 17 years I think, and my dad and stepmom have been married for over 30. They renewed their vows on the 30th and I stood up with them. I have to say, I hated my step mom for a long time but we have grown real close over the past 10 years and have become more like mother and daughter, more so than with my mother. I live a few blocks away from my mom and hardly see her. Dad lives 1500 miles away and I talk to them every weekend or more.
They (Dad and Mom)never talked much after the divorce, but now they e-mail each other and send Christmas greetings and such. Guess they are friends now.
I myself am raising my two children without their dads. I've been divorced twice.(!!!!) I try to remain friendly with their dads, but sometimes it's hard to do so.

Mine divorced when I was 4 or 5, didn't exactly stay friends but were civil (at least when I was around). Dad just moved up the street so I got to see him alot; which was really cool. They're still civil because now they have a grandaughter!

yeah my parents divorced when i was around 10....I don't like it, just from the way it effected me and my sisters. My dad was so abusive to my mom even before i was born. They did learn how to be in a room with each other and not fight...then one day, they became friends again, and almost got back together.....but my dad died of a massive heart attack before it happened. Even though the relationship was bad back then, everyone still considers them soul mates. I really hoped they would get back together. I may have feared my dad as a kid, but i learned to forgive and forget.

I come from divorced parents. I'm glad my dad divorced my mom. It was a very hositile environment when they were together. We grew up happier cuz of the split. I'm extremely close with my dad, but not so close with my mom due to some things she had done to us kids in the past and how she continues to do things. Not to be mean, but my mom needs help and she doesn't realize it.

My folks divorced when I was about 10 years old. The whole thing is not something that anyone wants but it worked out for the best as they both remarried people who were great step parents.

My parents are still married after 48 years. I actually wanted them to divorce. Growing up in an abusive household sucked.
