What do we do if our children keep trying to get us to reconcile?

Children will always try to get their parents to reconcile, unless they've seeing domestic violence, and then often they feel relieved. But when children feel like their parents should be together, or they want them together, they'll actually take their mother's hand and try to have father's hold the hand, they'll try to put them together, they'll say "tell mom or dad 'I love you'", and they'll actually think that they can do it in their omnipotence. That has to be nipped in the bud. You have to let the children know that it's not going to happen, that it's not their responsibility, and that their failure to do so is not because they're not loved sufficiently, or because it's their fault.
