Marriage Straight Talk

# Divorce and After

Some marriages end and some only look like they are ending. These pages are for the stay or go stretch: how to tell the difference honestly, what a last real attempt looks like, and how to handle it decently when kids are in the middle.

-   [How to Save a Marriage When It Feels Like the Last Chance](/save-marriage-last-chance-sos-technique)
    
    The honest version of the last chance page. What to stop doing immediately, what order to do the rest in, and how to tell which emergency you are actually in.
    
-   [Avoiding Divorce When the Holidays Hit](/avoid-divorce-during-the-holidays-at-all-costs)
    
    Why family law offices get busy in January, what the season really exposes about a marriage, and how to survive it without an irreversible decision.
    
-   [Divorcing With a Baby](/divorcing-with-a-baby)
    
    The mediated route versus the adversarial one, what a baby actually picks up, and how two people stay functional as co-parents for the next two decades.
    
-   [Leaving a Toxic Marriage With a Child](/how-to-leave-a-toxic-marriage-with-a-child)
    
    The safety line first, then the honest work of finding out whether a marriage you call toxic is actually workable.
