My only point was that young children are a reason to try to mend a bad marriage. With grown kids, the onus is more on the parents to ask if they want to save their union for their own sake.
I can understand if Elin thought of her young kids when asking herself if she wanted to try to heal.
Personally, I think it's a lost cause.
