Wait Until the Children Are Grown to Divorce?

Question of the Day:

In your experience, have you noticed anything that would cause you to advise people to wait (or not wait) until minor children are adults to begin divorce proceedings? – Matt

Answer:

Matt: That is such an individual question, I would not presume to give people advice because it is their life not mine. If they can live together and raise the children successfully, then it is probably better for the children that they stay together. But by the time they get to me, most people are so miserable in their marriage and in conflict as parents, that the children may be better off if their parents are separated.
