Just keep telling yourself, "two Christmases and two birthdays" until greed washes away the pain.

Then try to be less of an asshole to your kids.

Except if your parents never end up divorcing and you just having to live with their bickering and one parent undermining the other with gaslighting. Fun times…

"Stay together for the kids, we can make them as miserable as we are together!"

Except when neither of the divorced parents has any money, and you get zero birthdays and zero Xmas, but a whole lot of yelling from both sides about how lucky you are and how "I don't need to get you anything, that bitch/asshole of a mother/father will get something for you."

It's what my wife went through. But she is doing a great job as a mom and a wife because she made up her mind to be different than her parents. She also went from a size 20 to a size 8 over the past several years of constant effort but that's another story.
