The positive impact that reconciling can have on your children and on their own marriages can actually alter future generations. Paul R. Amato researched the effects of divorce on children and found that when parents divorce, children often have destructive conflict management methods, diminished social competence, more trouble with dating, greater likelihood of divorce, and a decreased desire to have children. Furthermore, divorce often weakens the parent-child relationship and children often report feeling less support than those from a home with both parents. Even if the divorce itself does not affect parenting, it often leads to worry, exhaustion, and stress for parents, which in turn affect parenting.
Again, I hope that the changes you have made are permanent and that your wife is willing to give you another chance. Hatzlocha and may you merit to reunite your family soon!
