How much do we put up with for our children?

Hi

How much do we take for the sake of our children before enough is enough? I've asked myself that numerous times lately and as far as I get is remembering my son tell me that he likes us all living together and wants us all to be happy. At the moment his father and my relationship isn't effecting him but I know it will do if I let it. So am I being a bad Mum by trying to be a good Mum and gritting my teeth and getting on with things for the sake of my son? I'm stuck, anybody else got any thoughts?

" People who divorce are usually never "happier". Is there anyway you two can make this work? I am watching my brother (divorced 2 years) dealing with a new wive (aka stepmom) and a new "uncle" for my nephews. It is not pretty, and I wish they would have stayed and "pretended to be a happily married couple". If you can be sweet to eachother, the kids will be more at peace. Just don't stay together and fight the whole time. Good Luck. "

" We don't fight, we get on great infront of the family because I keep quiet. Our background is a little odd in that we met and married 11 years ago, divorced 8 years ago, he had a 5 year relationship since we divorced which produced a son that we see every other weekend. All the time that we were apart we had joint custody of my son but because of my pnd he managed to get himself classed as primary carer which meant he had him 4 nights a week and I had him 3. For the last 2 years or so we have been living together, in his house, as a family. I can normally put his OW (thats women by the way not woman) out of my mind and exist quite well together but last night I caved in when he tried it on in bed (I've been doing a bit of the cold shoulder lately) and afterwards I had to go and sit downstairs so he didn't see me crying, why am I crying? Doesn't normally bother me, maybe it's hormones?! "
