Oh Really?
Maybe you can tell that to a distant family memeber of mine that was in a family where the mother was so unhappy
due to the father's ridicule of his wife, and when her son came home from school he found his mother had hanged herself... Hmm Maybe she should of divorced???

Since I have worked in a 12 step recovery house I DO KNOW what people do in extreme bouts of unhappinesss...

You think you are the only one? My wife worked for years in halfway houses.

People CAN do many things when unhappy... and they CAN do many things even when happy. In the case you are citing, there can be a clear argument of ABUSE going on, which I have already stated was a situation where divorce is warranted... ABUSE and NEGLECT... how many times do I have to repeat this? Certainly suicide would fall into the NEGLECT category as well...

Of course it could also be that this woman had underlying mental disorders that were never treated and would have committed suicide at some other point in her life... and when Jr. came home to find her, would not have had his father around to be there.... But hey, lets just ignore other possibilities.

So the husband didn't ridicule the wife before they married? He did a 180 degree turn after marriage? Riiiiight.

Besides, you didn't read my whole post. I never said they should stay married and be mean to each other, did I?
