I can remember 7 years ago when I would carry her to bed after she fell asleep eating ice cream.
This is the daughter of my girlfriend and we, GASP!, LIVE TOGETHER!!!! By the cardinal rules set place by some of the people here I am still waiting for her to start smoking crack and prostituting herself. And she is still waiting for me to assault her.....
Yes,
I am a presumed woman. :)
And you are a misandrist.
There. Now don’t we both feel better for calling each other names?
Erm,
make your case first please, because all you’ve done so far is slam the double X’s and assume we are all in cahoots.
So far, knowing her for years and you for a short while.
She’s right and you’re wrong.
But I will give you lots of opportunity to change my opinion.
You’re one of the best fathers I know, and one of the reasons I believe conservative men (in RL, not here) are good guys.
Yes. By all means leave your children with this mentally disturbed woman.
I read every word you said. And I can’t say what I would do if I were you. But are you thinking this through?
Will leaving her make you happy? Will your children be better off without you?
You think you’re an ATM now. Just wait till the divorce lawyers get through with you. Hoo boy!
Please. I know you have it bad. And maybe divorce is your solution. Just know it will be the worst thing you’ve ever done.
Just for fun!
If you consider single motherhood "winning". I don't. It's not an easy life either.
I don't think anyone "advocates" for divorce. I think most of us just think it should be fair, and IMHO, should not have it's own societal engineering motive that implies citizens need government to make very personal decisions, like whether they should stay married or not, for them.
Same right it has to fine people for not keeping their ad valorem tax tag up to date, using their concealed weapon license in a reckless manner. It's called the police power of the state and it's purpose is to regulate the exercise of rights so that they don't threaten the health, welfare and safety of the people of the state.
The option ofno-fault divorce is destroying the integrity of the basic unit of society, simply because that option is available and easy in comparison to actually working out problems.
It's purpose may be warm and fuzzy, but it is not used that way. It's proper use depends totally and completely on the fair heartedness, integrity, honesty and sense of self governance of the user, with no oversight thereof.
It's like putting a loaded gun for public use at every street corner. 
No. . .just do away with the no fault divorce laws.
You said an absolute mouthful here. I can't tell you how many families I know that would have been better off parting in the interest of the children.
Good grief man, do you not understand the original reason for the concept of the no-fault divorce laws?????
Men always had the upper hand in divorces and custody because they controlle the money. What a woman had to go through to get a divorce, let alone custody or support of any sort was utterly horrendous.
I'm no femininazi, and actually despise those type, but for crying out loud you can't actually believe that women got a fair shake in divorce.
I don't think it's ever been easier to tell the good from the bad. Particularly if you can follow their postings on internet forums and tell what kind of personality they have when they think no one is watching ;~)
Who said anything about moping? I'm taking action to deal with 'the system' as it is.
What action? What do you actually propose to fix this, and how do you think it will be made better?
AMEN

“Yes, it is painful, and it is terrible, and I pray God I may never have to endure such a trial. But if I do, I hope I remember that God allowed it for a reason, and if I turn it to good use, it can be an immensely powerful force for my own sanctification and the sanctification of everyone around me.”
No offence but you should read the bible cover to cover and follow the example of the character of God. Christ may have died on that cross for all mankind but Christ came to the Jews first in His mission. They rejected Him guaranteeing Daniel’s prophecy of Israel being trampled on by the nations until 1948. In Catecism do they teach about the Jewish Tabernacle being torn assunder by that earthquake the moment Christ died on the cross? Seems like a shredding of a legal or binding covenant to me.
So, there are two sides to this story. Read the old testament again and see what happened to Israel when they rejected His benevolent blessing and decided to be selfish and destructive instead. You want to tell me that God continued to bless Israel no matter what and continue to take abuse for providing blessing?
Not all lessons taught to our species come from blessing friend. Sometimes we CHOOSE to be abusive and your spouse has every right to follow the character of God and break the covenant. Now, I am not Jesus and don’t know all or see all. But I do know abuse and if as a husband or wife you are abusing your spouse you are breaking your covenant, marriage vows and probable ignoring God as well. The covenant can and should end. If your mentally ill there are now medications that can help, but not all people can stop there behavior and no, I myself don’t feel like getting a hatchet in my head (literally).
Definately have to agree. My ex was nuttier then a fruitcake and I she relinquished custody. Her support (she was a nurse) was a joke $100 per month. She never paid it but I didn’t care as long as she stayed out of my hair. Well, the court caught up to her. She filed a bogus charge and I had to defend against it while the court gave her immediate custody. While she had temporary custody, she would file for child support and because I make a substantial living, it would erase 2-3 years of non-support. She did this four times until my son was 13 and could speak for himself about this supposed ‘abuse’. I got custody every time. That is MY SON!!! I didn’t just leave it to a lawyer either. I collected massive amounts of evidence the attorneys were too lazy to collect. She lost every time, even though she basically erased our son’s college funding.
