Englishman, It has alot to do with the mentchlichkeit of both sides. Are they more worried about themselves or the children? But I know some situations where the marriage didn’t work out but b”H the parents tried to take the high road and minimize the damage.
Just a point to ponder, but usually children of divorced are more sensitive. And they also have more clarity on good/bad relationships. (I’m just saying that it’s not “all bad”)
