Hey bro, If you were around here I'd give a big Dad hug and tell my kids that we had a new family friend.

Thank you for your kind words, and thanks to everyone else who mailed me with their stories and encouragement. Just so you all know, I have done very well for myself, I'm financially independant, own my home, cars, etc. Not bad for 40 years old. My wife and I are about to celebrate our tenth wedding anniversary. The one thing that I have always made sure of is to never, ever take out my bad moods on my wife. She understands my moods, and gives me lots of room when I need it. So overall I'm pretty happy.

The main reason that I share my story on these divorce related threads is because I want people to hear the truth about what happens to real people and real children who live through real divorces. The results I've seen from my experience and from the experience of others is that it is wildly destructive to families and to our society as a whole. I've learned a lot of hard lessons in my life. One thing I've learned is that men can be very, very cruel to each other, but women have the capacity to take cruelty to extreme and dazzling heights. "Hell hath no fury..." and all that.

We as a society should make marriage a lot harder to get into and a lot harder to get out of, especially where children are involved.
