alt Hacker NewsI disagree. Even as an adult I would be distraught if one of my parents decided to cheat on the other. Your children being adults doesn't mean you no longer have a responsibility towards them.

Then its time to grow up, people change, interests change, lifelong love and happy life together is and always was a fairytale. Once you are 20 and somewhat independent its time to relax your responsibility claims on your parents. They already spent a great deal of their so very limited life time on you, at least be grateful for that.

I can tell you from experience that it hits different when you're legally an adult.
For one, there's no custody case. There's often also no child support (some jurisdictions extend it to college students) to speak of.
There's really mostly the sorrow of the parent who was cheated on.
