When people say 'There is no such thing as staying together for the children.' I believe them. But it all depends on how long you can keep up the charade, towards your children, that you love and respect each other.

Nearly four years ago, my elder one saw us fighting and kept asking for weeks about that. That was when I figured kids are not that small now, and decided never to do that again in front of children (or even otherwise). The price I had to pay was/is whenever I disagree to her, I will just keep quite and won't start a heated argument, she will be abgry and mentally torture me but children would be kind of safe. Before this, whenever we had an argument, she would never use logic just blah blah rubbish, and when cornered with logic she will take it out on children.
I don't want my children to suffer at any cost or even see any of arguments we have. I would better leave and get a fair share of pain.
