[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cannot believe that people on this forum are arguing over the things that they have to do for extra curricular activities. Petty. Grow up. I bring the snacks. I stand in the rain. I wash the uniform. Get a grip and learn to work together. This is why divorce, and bad marriages, are so hard on kids. Confront your issues and move on. As a solo parent, I do all of these things. Reading the threads on this forum have made be realize how juvenile some people can be. [/quote] How would you suggest people do that? If you're the parent who's doing all of those chores while your spouse sits on the couch watching tv, and shows zero willingness to change no matter what you say/do, what is your solution to that? For some people, if they're already doing most of those tasks on their own plus all the additional work their spouse generates (extra laundry, dishes, etc.) and they don't feel like they're getting anything else of value from their spouse (e.g., emotional support), it might seem like a better deal to divorce.[/quote] The end of your post answered your question. There is nothing wrong with divorcing or working through the problems as a couple. Nothing wrong with either path. What is petty is carrying around a mental checklist of who-did-what and carrying that bitterness in your heart. Do not create a co-dependent spouse and then whine about it.[/quote]
