To: null and void

This is good, nully. I’m genuinely pleased to hear about that. It’s good for you and your ex, but good most of all for your daughter.

I know kids are better off when their parents can be civil and show some kind of affection or kindness, even if/when it’s difficult. My kids sure have appreciated it, and have often told me so. They’re very glad that their parents have maintained closeness and respect, in general, despite our disagreements at times, over the years. Apparently, it’s also a topic of conversation between my children and their friends as it’s so “odd” that our relationship has been, for the most part, decent, joking, and even caring at times.

So, it’s all good, in the end.

Last year we had a parent teacher meeting and the teacher made some comment about dividing parental support for Ratboy's homework duties.

When we indicated that her scheme wouldn't work because we simply couldn't divide duties across single evenings due the visitations schedule, she was astonished.

Her comment was that she could always tell when one of her students was a child of divorce, always.

With Ratboy, she had absolutely no idea.

We couldn't have begged, borrowed, or stolen a better complement.
