So my parents are getting divorced. Well, they've been saying that for 17 years (since I was born) but they're actually going to now.
Of course many of my friends have divorced parents and I thought that if they were going to get divorced, it's later on that'll be okay but I'm actually wrong. I just feel so...I can’t even describe it! Like the divorcing part, I really don’t care much I guess since I keep going into this mode when they always talked about it to prepare myself.
And back then I was. But now that there's so much at stake and I'm going to university next year and I have two younger siblings to think about, I really don't know!
How did children of divorced parents even get through with this?! Please help me. I just feel awful and I can’t believe that of all things, THIS is happening to me on my last year of high school. (link)

I'm sorry for what happened between your parents. There is no clear-cut answer to your question. Although the law will require the parents to take care of you regardless so it won't be too much of a burden on your part, the only road to take in this situation is to understand your parents for divorcing and just look out for your siblings once the divorce takes effect. This is unfair for any children to undergo, but this is what you are fated with so you simply have to take it as it is.

Also, you need your friends more than ever to help you understand the feeling of having divorced parents since they all have experienced it. This will at least give you company and support while you go through this. Good luck.
