"When I was in sixth grade, my parents called us into the living room. &amp;quot;We&amp;#x27;re going to live in different houses for a while,&amp;quot; they told us...My brother, sister and I burst into tears, while my dad gave us some analogy about how it&amp;#x27;s hard to paint a house when you&amp;#x27;re up too close (which I still don&amp;#x27;t totally understand). And that was it. After they were separated for a year, they officially got divorced. After a while, however, it actually ended up being OK. I felt awkward telling my friends at school, but we saw my dad all the time (including epic adventures like sleepovers with cookie baking!), and my parents constantly told us how much they loved us. So I&amp;#x27;ve more or less turned out to be a well-adjusted adult. At least I hope... :) What about you guys? Are your parents divorced or happily married? If they split, how old were you? Was it traumatic or OK? xoxo P.S. True reader confessions: &amp;quot;My dad just started dating. Weird?&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;When my parents divorced, they made us choose sides.&amp;quot; Get Glamour Wherever You Go! Follow us on Twitter. Friend us on Facebook. Add us to your Googlehomepage.
