I know in my own marriage I stayed in it to provide my son with what I thought was a stable background and to give him what I thought was the family life a child should have with two parents. But that isn't always the best way, and it took me taking my son to therapy after the divorce to really see it.

I never really loved school through junior high, but then I started running track my freshman year, and I was just like, 'Wow, this is cool!'
