[quote=Anonymous]From dad's POV: Many old school men think it's a women's job to raise kids, so a man leaving a mother he's unhappy with - especially if he still provides financially to the kids - just isn't noteworthy to them in any way. Onward and upward, let the kids circle back when they're 18+ and ready for adult conversations. See also, rich men sending their 14-year-olds off to boarding school for generations, which is sort of the same concept of paying someone else to raise your teen. Or workaholic men who fly everywhere for work and are barely home; mom and dad are still married, but dad's barely home and obviously not actually raising the kids. Or two parent workaholic homes where neither parent are home much and nannies and au pairs raise the kids.[/quote]
