Two years ago I asked for advice. I took all of it, here is what mattered and here’s where I’m at.

What mattered:

-Don’t leave the marital home

-Be an active father long before divorce starts

The former is perfect advice for now, the latter is moreover binary for those already doing it.

I didn’t leave and I was already an active participant in all of my kids’ activities.

I am now fully divorced, I have custody of my kids other than 50% of weekends and 50% of summer break.

I found a partner with the exact same custody schedule.

If you’re reading this and you’re new to the process, just be an involved dad and don’t give in.
