You want your kid growing up poor?
—You want your kid growing up poor?—
That is what divorce tends to do. That is why it is a thing to be avoided.
Way too many women just don’t like living with another adult that may have needs or wants like they do and discovers she can get all the financial perks but still be “free” of the yoke of marriage, so she pulls the trigger on the divorce. She then discovers it does not turn out the way she had hoped.
People are not machines. Sometimes divorce can impact a man’s earning power or job satisfaction when it is all going to a family of children that have been legally removed from his home without cause. He does not make a conscious effor to stop making money, but he may be “less employable”.
