My parents are divorcing.

[Professor S]

That sucks, which is about as poetic as I get. I can't say I can offer much sympathy as I've never been through something like that, but my thoughts are with you and your family.

Just one thing: It's not your fault. You're probably too old for this to affect you but a lot of children of divorce blame themselves, when in reality it is most often the children that keep the family together for as long as it does. Once again, you probably are too old for that kind of thinking, but I just wanted to make sure.
