there are obviously missing details. If they have all this money, why don't they move the father and child to be near the mother? Why doesn't the mother hire someone to run the business....something does not fit...
I guess...to best articulate my position I should explain my feelings about divorce. I remember when my first child was born and one of my earliest thoughts when passing him to his mom was, how can anyone get divorced and deprive a child of the anything that could risk their ultimate happiness. There is a radio psychologist that argues divorce is only acceptable in the case of one of the 3 "A"s. Addiction , Adultery and/or Abuse. I saw my wife through Addiction early on and Adultery later and would not fold on my kids happiness (that is the Scottish in me!).
Anyway..when people talk about a marriage "dissolving" or people "falling out of love" to me it just SCREAMS...SELFISH. Marriage is a life long commitment...get some feckin therapy and if it don't work get some more. Love for me is a choice and not always an easy one....but in the end, having the courage to work through it with an eye on all its ruin affects, is 10000 times more rewarding than trying to get a better deal somewhere else. We have become a society rich with pansies.
