Thanks for all the advice guys.

While I have read that something like half of all marriages end in divorce, we just have never known any personally. This family had three terrific teen children and it's just plain wrecked them.

However, staying together miserable is not good either. My wife wished her parents had divorced instead of spending one miserable year after another together.

The problem is these situations of course, is that the involved individuals want to "vent." In many ways it's been pent up, and now it's being released. As their friends, we want to be there for them, but it's really hard not to end up polarized on one side.
