Is this your story?
You seem to be very emotionaly involved.
Nope, I’ve never been married and have no children. I do love children very much, and want several of my own someday.
That may be my emotional involvement - I love children and seen many get harmed by divorces. I see no compelling need to pile any more on a child in that situation.
Given the choice between a child taking the hit, and the adult taking the hit, I say ‘hit the adult.’ Every option has problems, so that’s the least bad option I can think of, in the totality of the situation.
