I know someone very well, who had decided looong years ago, to file for divorce immediately and urgently, when the youngest child would be 18 yo. When the 3 children became older, the problems decreased because of that (growing older) - and today the pair is married for 50 years, verbal a little bit fighting as always, but otherwise the two are good friends most of the time.BBM--The link with Sarah turning 21 has a jokey sound to me, maybe something that might have been said about the distant future. Otherwise, why would a parent link what should be a triumphal occasion for her daughter with the breakdown of her parents' marriage? That's . . . cruel. The timing was something for Karen to decide given circumstances we don't entirely know, but surely there was no practical reason to wait for Sarah's 21st birthday.
