Sounds like it needed to be done.
Better for the kids to see the parents in safer, separate environments than seeing you two fight like that.

was it bad after the first kid? did it get better after the second? who am I to truly judge but creating a thread does bring out valid questions to ask.. first instinct is to call out SELFISH. but i presume that wouldnt be fair
It was cool after the first, the second baby resulted from makeup, as well as the 3rd. We tried counseling years ago and I've prayed aboutthis everyday and night for the last 4 years. I wanted to make it work for the kids because its something I never had but my children deserve better thanfussing, fighting, tension, and bad mouthing everyday. Like I said, my children have already been affected by this, and when I feel like I need to resort tophysical measures, it means that it is time for me to leave. Its unsafe and unhealthy for my kids, my wife, and myself to continue this. Call me selfish butthis is for the best. Thanks for everyone's advice and suggestions.
 
Some of you guys in here are just plain stupid....

The dude said he has tried for the past years to make it work...this isn't an overnight thing. My parents got divorced when I was like 4 or something. Thebest advice I can give you though is to make sure you are there for your kids. You are probably gonna be able to have them on the weekends or whatever....butwhen they grow up like one time a week at night after work pick them up and take them out to dinner or to a movie or something. My dad did this with me and mybrother and we used to love it. It gives you time to hangout and as a kid I always looked forward to it because I used to only see my dad like every/everyother weekend.

Don't listen to some of the people in here saying..."make it work"..."live in separate rooms".....If there is going to be constantarguing they are going to know when they get home from school everyday that your guys will probably be fighting....they won't be able to focus...and theywould probably think it is their fault when they are still young. Just make sure you can still talk to her on the phone and stuff to get information on thekids without arguing every time you call her. Good Luck
 
She's going to take have of everything and your kids. Make sure getting rid of her is even worth it. Judge will probably give her sole custody too.Personally, I'd sacrifice being in a horrible marriage before I'd let her take my kids away. Unless you get custody...it's not worth it IMO.
 
damn son, that's bad times
my parentals stayed together, but I think to make it work, just focus on your girls, don't worry about the wife, just don't get mad at her in front ofkids

Unless he has a history of violence, etc, most divorces end in joint custody.

Negative, if I really wanted to have sole custody I can. There are a number of reasons that I won't put out here but if I wanted to I could. My children deserve to have both of their parents so I suggested 50/50 custody. The decree is already complete, I just have to go over it with a fine toothcomb, but nah, its really not like that.

Don't suffer working things out when they can't be fixed. Just keep in contact with your kids as much as possible and when they get to a certain age they can decide which parent they want to stay with.


I feel that. You can't fix something that can't be fixed! And most people want to stay because of the kids.
