One of the kid’s books I read in elementary that’s stuck with me a bit is “The Time of the Witch” precisely because of how it dealt with divorce as the best option (albeit in a fantasy way). The MC’s parents are divorcing and she desperately wants them not to. She asks a self-professed witch for her parents to get back together, but finds out a big part of the exchange is her little brother falling permanently deeply ill but never dying from the witch’s spell, and the parents feeling obligated to stay together. The witch, who it turns out really has it in for her family, tells her something like “the tendrils of their love will grow into suffocating vines of resentment as long as they are bound together”. (The spell’s broken by a good witch, but distance as a positive in a relationship was a new thing to read as a kid.)
