Huh. My parents divorced when I was...eight? That part wasn't so bad, since they were terrible for each other. For the next few years, though, my brother and I were put in the middle of every argument. They liked to badmouth each other, and we just kinda looked at each other and shrugged. We also had to have two of EVERYTHING...Mom didn't want us taking anything she'd bought over to Dad's, and he felt the same. It was annoying, and not so fun having our loyalty tested on a weekly basis. Luckily, they finally called sort of a truce, and backed off.
But, relatively speaking... not so bad.
