My child's friend recently parents (about 60 yo) getting a divorce. Basically the dad said kids all grown up and he wants a life of his own before it is 'too late'. His kids (around 30 yo) were shocked as all thought their parents were loving. After they heard their dad pouring out his sorrows in tears (about having to put up with a domineering wife for years for the sake of keeping family peace and unable to pursue own interest etc), they supported his decision. (the divorce decision was triggered by something quite minor, like a piece of used tissue on the table and the wife nagged and nagged and nagged and he finally decided enough is enough).
