Sometimes, this is what "prioritizing the children's best interests" looks like.
I'm still married on paper. We live essentially separate lives in separate houses. It's less than ideal, but it preserves our children's quality of life, allowing their childhood to be about them being children, not collateral damage in a war between their parents.
I'd divorce my spouse today if doing so wouldn't throw my children's lives into financial chaos and upheaval, but it would. So we make do. Sometimes, loving someone means doing what's best for them instead of what's easiest for me.
No loving your children is not staying in a bad marriage you tho k they aren’t messed up because you stay lol dumb

Good for you. What kind of idiot would announce something like this?

Yay 50/50 finally! Hope the kids have it together.
They are probably doing better than your kids

Probably not. The ADHD/ASD types are entirely oblivious. I feel this area has a lot of them, because they do well in jobs that require very high levels of technical expertise, and the DC area has a lot of jobs like this. In my little street, there are no less than three men with that profile. One of them can't keep a girlfriend, the two others have very unhappy wives.
Women in general are a cranky bunch. A lot of them make the mistake of thinking their partner is to blame. Then they divorce and discover they’re still unhappy.
