Well, my son-in-law is a much more honorable man now. After he left, he was simply amazed at the reactions of both sides of the family and his friends. I think he thought he could eat his cake and keep it, too. He lost a good job because of this, also. Within a couple of months, he was begging to reconcile with my daughter.

She said no and divorced him. I wasn't there, but she tells me he sat down on the floor and cried when the judge finalized the degree.

So, he tries and tries to get her back and finally, after a year and a half, she gives him another chance.

Now he is a man very dedicated to his family and his church. He has learned a lesson, but the scars will always be there in their marriage, I suppose. And I will never think the same of him again. We mamas just naturally want to protect our own.

But, one thing that nauseates me is when children are hurt more than they already are in a divorce...as in a nasty custody battle, which, sometimes is nothing more than a cruel attempt to hurt their ex.

Same here babe. To use the children is to hurt the children. It's almost unforgivable in my books. I'm glad it finally turned out for your daughter. You see, God can make good out of bad. But the in between, well you just have to go through it.
