Because midlife divorce is unique, it comes with its own unique rules and its own pitfalls. These include being especially careful about how you use social media and making sure to keep your adult children out of the fray as much as possible. If you’re getting a divorce in your 40s or later, you probably have a well-established support system of family and friends. Feel free to rely on them

Getting divorced when you are young can be difficult because you may not be very well established financially. Divorcing when you have young children at home also adds the pressures of a child custody battle. But getting divorced in midlife or later can also be challenging in different ways.
