Very sad that even divorced; they can't put things aside for their children.

Hear, hear - both for my own parents who divorced long ago, and for my own ex-wife... neither one of the women in these scenarios could be bothered to even TRY to resolve any issues, either myself or my father were expected to bear the full weight of fulfilling the princess's desires. All conflict was her being greedy and selfish and would not give an inch when it came to compromise or resolution of problems.

The concern for their spouse or children was a VERY distant second to her own desires (not "needs" - desires.)

It's a shame one or both of your parents can't deal with their conflicts effectively.... maybe someday they will when the bad feelings recede... :(

Yeah and I am not sure I have a good relationship with either of them anymore either.

I'm not in that situation(my paretns are still married & get along well for the most part) but I don't think there's really anything you can do about it except try to stay out of it as much as you can. Getting in the middle of their mess could risk making thigns worse between them & causing problems between you & them
