Single parents, when did you finally decide that it's totally over and how did you know it's the right time? What were your adjustments?

My father raised us alone and brought us away from our mom when the relationship started to destroy themselves. I believe this is my father's last straw as he exhausted all ways possible to salvage his relationship with my mother. He took us away and decided to renew our lives precisely because he wanted to protect us, his three children, from all the possible grievances that we may witness if they continue living together. I believe it's the right time to leave whenever things just won't work. Failed relationships, for me, is like a rotten body part. Cut it, no matter how painful, so the rest of you survives. Sharing with you one of my most favorite quotes on gripping things and letting them go.
