It's nice to hear of others having similar experiences. I didn't know anyone else that was raised by grandparents like me growing up so I love hearing those stories. I consider my grandparents my parents. While they had their flaws in some of my upbringing they did an outstanding job considering they had to take on a child at that stage of their lives. I don't think I could thank them enough for all they did for me.

2024-12-27 06:28:31 +0000 UTCThat’s so crazy! That would be really interesting if they do end up coming back together and then it works out. Maybe sometimes the problem is that people get together when they’re really young and then they change a lot which is hard to do when you’re in a relationship if you don’t change together.but then maybe overtime your priorities change and I guess if they change the same alignment then it would work out. That’s so trippy.

2024-12-27 05:51:14 +0000 UTCI’m so happy for you that you were able to get away from that! That sounds like it could be really really toxic. Much love your way!

2024-12-27 05:49:42 +0000 UTCYeah, I couldn’t imagine my parents being together. They are polar opposites! I’m the youngest in the family and my brother, who’s the oldest, has only memories of them screaming at each other. Luckily, I was so young that I just don’t have any memories of them together?

2024-12-27 05:48:51 +0000 UTCI’m so sorry that you’ve had to go through that. Luckily, you can see how staying married when you’re unhappy isn’t actually the solution to take. That way you won’t repeat the same thing in the future.

2024-12-27 05:48:10 +0000 UTCThat’s such a shame that they feel some need to stay in a relationship that they’re not happy and. At least by you seeing this, you know, it’s something that you don’t want to do for yourself in the future and that that’s at least some positive take away from it.

2024-12-27 05:47:22 +0000 UTCI’m so sorry I’ve had to go through that at such an older age. I can only imagine how that would rock someone’s world. I was so young so it’s all that I know. I wish you lots of hugs during this holiday season.

2024-12-27 05:46:47 +0000 UTCThat’s really beautiful of your grandparents to take you in. Such a wonderful responsibility to do since their child was simply too young. I met another guy that was a grandpa and he did the same thing. He introduced me to the girl he introduced her as his daughter. I thought that was really lovely because they raised her as their own daughter because her real mom was simply too young and was concentrating on college at the time

2024-12-27 05:46:12 +0000 UTCMy parents were never married and weren't together when I was born. Don't even know if they were together long before that tbh. I was raised by my grandparents. Didnt see my parents much, mostly holidays. My grandparents are awesome and I'm happy to have had them to raise me, my parents were young and definitely not ready for a child haha.

2024-12-26 01:54:49 +0000 UTCMy parents got divorced when I was 13, and it's been difficult. I was feeling pretty sad today on Christmas Eve, but this video helped to cheer me up so thank you :)

2024-12-25 02:54:55 +0000 UTCMy parents are married but I wish they would just divorce 🤦🏻 I actually wish they had done it years ago maybe they could’ve gotten more out of this world instead of getting stuck in a marriage.

2024-12-23 21:09:53 +0000 UTCMy Parents Aren't divorced. I always wished they would divorce. I begged my mom to leave with us when we were kids. They stayed together "for our sake". I hated it because they don't even like each other and just fought all the Day. I hated school and I hated going home. It's the second marriage for my dad. I have a older half sister. We're still in contact.

2024-12-21 21:56:08 +0000 UTCI'm from Scotland, my parents split up when I was 2 and were divorced not long after. Like you, I've only ever known my parents separated and it was honestly fine growing up like that. Whereas my best friends parents only split up a few years ago and I know she took it very hard. So I would say it's much harder when your parents split up when you're older than when you're a kid. Kids adapt easily and if it's all you've ever known it's not a big deal 🤷🏻♀️

2024-12-20 20:23:12 +0000 UTCMy parents got divorced when I was 18 months old and my younger brother was 1 month old. My mom got remarried to my stepdad when just before I turned 3. He already had a son from his first marriage and my stepbrother was 9 when they got married. Five years later they had my sister so my older brother and my sister are 14 years apart. My biodad got remarried at some point before my sister was born and i have 4 half siblings but I’ve only met the oldest when she was a week old. I know for sure that the oldest doesn’t talk to him anymore but that’s probably because he thinks he is a prophet so I’d say that we were quite lucky to get away from him at such a young age.

2024-12-19 20:25:42 +0000 UTCMy parents got divorced when I was about 3 years old, I don’t really have memories of them together to be honest. That was my dad’s second divorce and my mom never married again, have had long term partners and gave me a brother but never went through with a couple of engagements. My dad remarried when I was 11 and his divorce just finalized, they’ve been separated for almost 4 years now. Funny enough my mom and dad have been talking a lot more lately (they got along great after the divorce) so there’s even a chance they get back together. Who knows!

2024-12-19 19:29:53 +0000 UTCMy parents were never married. I’ve never even seen them interact with each other. Knowing them as completely separate entities was always my normal lol

2024-12-19 16:20:24 +0000 UTCMy parents were never married but they separated when I was about 3 or 4 so I don’t have much memory of them together. I have two older brothers, the oldest who wasn’t my dad’s but he raised him as his own. My mother’s anniversary of her passing was just on the 17th it’s been 16 years and today is my youngest sibling’s birthday. And I also hadn’t seen my dad until my mom passed away and I was 9 he was kind of just there but now we have a better relationship after I had my son who is 4

2024-12-19 16:16:35 +0000 UTCThis is one of my favourite top 10 episodes! My parents have been divorced since I was 2. My parents were both married to separate people, they had an affair, off and on again for a while with eachother. Mum found out she was pregnant with me, they got married, but dad cheated (again) and they split up. So I was the affair child so to speak. Growing up I was the odd one out - all my friends had married parents. It wasn't until I met my best friend at secondary school that she too had divorced parents.

2024-12-19 13:32:03 +0000 UTCMy Mum passed away 2 and a half years ago, happily married to my Dad for 32 years. I know they would have spent the rest of their lives together, completely in love. My Dad misses her everyday.

2024-12-19 08:16:10 +0000 UTCMy parents are still together, much to my surprise. They've been married for 19 years, but were off and on for a really long time before that. They first got together when my mom was 16, she's 48 now. Four years later, I came along, and they weren't always in a relationship until she basically told him to get his shit together and come be with us, or that was it for good. So, he moved in with us, and they got married when I was almost 9. They've had a lot of rocky moments though, and there were times where I'd wish they'd divorce because I resented my dad for a lot of things over the years. But anyway, yeah, still together! And to add on to that, my mom's adoptive parents were together until my poppa's passing in 2020, but my dad's parents divorced when he was a kid!

2024-12-19 06:02:33 +0000 UTCI'm almost 39 and my parents got divorced like 5-6 years ago after almost 40 years of marriage

2024-12-19 04:53:11 +0000 UTCMy dad died just before I turned 2 so....none of the above

2024-12-19 01:15:33 +0000 UTCBoth my parents have been divorced twice. Mom and dad got divorced when I was like 3 in 2002. My dad and stepmom got divorced in like 2014when I was 15. She was a bitch. My mom and stepdad were married for 15 years before divorcing about two years ago when I was 23. So I’ve kinda gone through all the age groups dealing with divorce so far lol. No one is in good terms together. All talk mad shit about eachother. It’s chaos. But on the bright side, It’s helped me understand the kind of relationships I don’t want 😂

2024-12-18 23:06:42 +0000 UTCMy parents were never married and my earliest memories begin after they got separated so I never really had the experience of knowing what it’s like when they were together from what I can tell I was probably the solution to fixing there terrible relationship and thankfully they decided to separate anyway because they both became better parents for it, from what I’ve heard from my older siblings and other relatives while my parents are good friends now and have moved on to much healthier relationships when they were together they were a horrible mess of constant arguing and emotional abuse.

Natasha Whitaker
2024-12-18 18:48:55 +0000 UTCMy parents 40th anniversary will be in July. At this point they are both pushing 70 and I'm not sure they would survive a divorce if they decided to get one. I think they're relatively content. My mom once described my dad as "a good husband but a terrible roommate".
Van Evans
2024-12-18 18:27:39 +0000 UTCMy parents never got married but got separated after 30years ,i was 17 and it wasn't really a big deal to me because i always kinda knew that my mom would leave my dad someday cuz he didn't really deserved her but i thought it would happen after i left the house since i was the last one living with them. My three brothers are all way older than me and have left the house for quite a while at that time, i decided to go live with my mom and it was a really bounding experience to be just the two of us. I also ditch school for personnal reasons so i tried to help my mom as much as possible while she started her life over.. when she was at work i was cleaning, doing laundry and groceries, cooking etc.. I think she needed that.

2024-12-18 17:37:12 +0000 UTCMy parents just celebrated their 24th anniversary and are super happy! I do know a lot of people with divorced or unhappy parents though so I think I was just super lucky. We've always been one of those really happy sort of TV families and I'm so so thankful for it!

2024-12-18 17:34:09 +0000 UTCMy situation is different than most my biological perants are devorsed. They have been for since I was a child but I haven't lived with them since I was 5 my auntie got special guardianship of me and my three siblings and we have lived with her since but from what I can rember I have never really seen a normal happy relationship in my life my dad used to abuse my mom physically and verbally and my auntie hasn't had a partner since we have lived with her and all my aunties and uncles are not together anymore or a with different people. This is probably why I have and 4 relationship and three of them were abusive so I'm now trying to brake that cycle so I can do better for my fucher children

2024-12-18 17:25:10 +0000 UTCMy parents are going to celebrate their 50th anniversary next year, which is insane to me.

2024-12-18 17:02:56 +0000 UTCI'm from the Philippines, and unfortunately there are no exceptions. You can get an annulment but that could take years and is insanely expensive. It's a really fucked up and backwards system put in place by people who, for some reason, still don't understand "separation of church and state" Edit: Muslims are allowed divorce, but not converts

2024-12-18 17:01:19 +0000 UTCWhere do you live if I may ask? And are there exceptions, like if there is abuse or cheating?

2024-12-18 16:57:15 +0000 UTCMy parents are divorced but they didn't get divorced until I was an adult. Honestly it wasn't hard for me because I think they should have gotten divorced way before, for things that are hard to go into detail but mainly due to abuse and my dad's alcoholism. My parents were constantly fighting and my dad was abusive (emotionally, physically and financially towards my mum and emotionally towards me and my sisters). So I actually wished they'd get a divorce because it was just so toxic. I'm very close with my mum, not as close with my dad, but even when we lived together I wasn't that close with him as he was very emotionally (and sometimes physically) distant. Neither of them have remarried/been in other relationships since. It's sad but I still love this episode. It's sad but I still love this episode, especially that scene with Rachel & Chandler and him "handing her off" to Ross. Rachel and Chandler's friendship is one of the most underrated friendships in the series in my opinion. Matthew and Jennifer were actually really close and in his memoir he said she had reached out the most during his darkest times. I feel like that's why they had such great chemistry.

2024-12-18 16:52:56 +0000 UTCInterestingly enough I'm from one of two countries in the world where divorce is illegal. And growing up with a large extended family I have a whole bunch of relatives who are in happy committed relationships now, but are still really wed to people I haven't heard about in years
hjbjms
2024-12-18 16:45:48 +0000 UTCMy parents divorced around the time I was two. Luckily it was a peaceful divorce, but my dad was inconsistent on if he wanted to be in my life a lot. My mom remarried a few years later and they're still together to this day. Since I was so young and they had an amicable divorce I wasn't to torn in two.
