Have your unique: Relationship w/each of them. W/out meaning to, each will put you in the middle and resent the fact that you relate to the others. Be your own person and support each one while setting limits. Peace and good health.

Divorced Parents: Having parents get divorced when you are an adult can present different challenges than when you were a kid. It can be quite jarring, especially if your parents have been married for a long time. I would try to maintain a relationship with both of them and make it clear where your boundaries are. You shouldn't be put in the middle of their disagreements (if the split is not amicable).
