Asking Eric: How to minimize the negative effects of divorce on my kids

Dear Eric: I’ve been thinking about divorce for a while now, but I’m terrified of what it might do to our kids. I feel like my marriage is no longer working. My husband and I are no longer on the same page with what we want. But every time I think about taking the step to separate, I can’t shake the fear that the divorce process will have a lasting negative effect on my children.
