Sometimes the success of a marriage isn’t how much unhappiness you can endure, but being able to admit that it needs to end with respect and partnership.
Kids who see their parents divorce but still show up for each other… they grow up different.
They grow up knowing that love doesn’t always mean staying together.
Sometimes, it means letting go
and choosing peace over pretending.
They learn that families don’t have to live under one roof to still be whole.
That birthdays, ballgames, and graduations can still be filled with joy,
because two people cared enough to put their kids first.
They don’t see slammed doors,
cold silences,
or whispered arguments behind closed walls.
They see two parents laughing together at the bleachers,
standing side by side in school hallways,
and cheering them on without competition.
Those kids grow up with a deeper kind of strength.
They understand that respect matters more than appearances.
That kindness lasts longer than resentment.
That endings can become beginnings.
So when you see kids smiling with both parents,
running between houses with ease,
confident that they’re loved in both spaces
know this:
They’re not “broken.”
They’re not “less than.”
They’re blessed.
Because one day, they’ll grow into adults who know how to set boundaries,
who know that peace is worth protecting,
who choose love that feels safe instead of love that just looks good.
Kids who see their parents divorce but still show up for each other
don’t grow up doubting love.
They grow up redefining it.
