My parents split when I was in the midst of high school and my brother was around 11. It's definitely not easy. In my parents' case it was the right choice for sure, but the transition was pretty tough. More so for my bro than me, but those are trying times for families, and as we both know firsthand.

Lack of money always makes life hard, and certainly there are worse scenarios than what Tiger's kids are facing. But they are now officially from a broken home, and their father is a world class athlete and world class scumbag at the same time. A hero and a failure all wrapped into one. As they grow up, life will be confusing and tough for them, regardless of the quality of the roof over their head. Money matters, but they still have a hard road ahead.
