My relationship with my SM

My dad and my SM got divorced about 3 years ago, and they had been living apart for about 1 year before that. They have never fought, but she wanted another child (still does) and he did not. As soon as they recieved the paperwork saying the divorce was final they new they made a mistake, but they still couldn't quite get on the same page. They have now been living together again for the past 2 years. They still do not really see eye to eye on the child thing, but it's not a deal breaker for them anymore.
My point, I always stayed in close contact with my SM. I called for advice, checked up on her to see how she was doing, always did and still do tell her that I love her. My younger sister's relationship with her has been pretty similar, but my older sister does not talk to her often. I don't know if part of this is age? I know that at this point if DH and I were to seperate or divorce my SD's contact with me would probably end, due to them not being old enough to make their own decisions on this. But you all got me wondering what would happen if DH and I went through what my dad and his wife have...
Re: My relationship with my SM
I still have an amazing relationship with my SM, my dad never married her but I still consider her my SM. They seperated over 20 years ago. And I only speak to my mom's ex when I see him (we are members of the same church)
I know should DH and I ever seperate, I would never see or talk to SS again. He's only one now, so he wouldn't have much memory of me anyway, but his mom despises me and would never allow him to have any contact with me. It would break my heart if this situation were to happen if he were older.
