What is National Ex-spouse Day?

Very few marriages end amicably. Many who have ended a marriage are encouraged to forgive their former spouse and move beyond any anger or sadness that may remain. National Ex-Spouse Day is held each year on April 14th. And those that aren't aren't free from anxiety or regrets aren't immune from angst or regrets.

Sometimes marriages just don't work out for a variety of reasons. According to recent reports, the divorce rate for first marriages is at 51%. Some people find that after a divorce they get along better than they did during the marriage. Unfortunately, all divorces don't turn out to be helpful, and the process can be difficult and traumatic. Whether it is a friendly or a family split, there must be a way to handle the situation when children are involved.
