[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a man who agonized about the effect of divorce on his kids, I am disappointed (but not surprised) to see the view here that men are completely selfish and only care about getting "free child care". I doubt I am the only man ever who hesitated to get divorced and seriously considered staying in a loveless, sexless marriage for years in order to avoid hurting his kids. [/quote] 50/50 custody with two healthy, caring, and communicable co-parents is fine. It’s not fine with one or both are unhealthy. Not clear what bucket you and your wife are in. Many many spouses would leave tomorrow if they felt their children would be well cared for and emotional and all needs (not McDs and clothes) would be taken care of consistently by the other parent. But they don’t see that happening, and it’s not happening now, so they stay. To protect the kids. It’s a terrible situation with terrible options. [/quote]
