He's faced with a tough decision (stay with her or leave her and his remaining kid), but he could've persuaded her to think things through, look at other options, etc.

It sounds to me like he tried (he did suggest they go ahead with having the babies) - but I honestly don't think she could be persuaded. She sounds hard-core and completely unrepentant to me.

I made a comment somewhere upthread about the dilemma he faces. I feel sorta bad for him, although he should've stopped her when she suggested taking their chances instead of getting married first.
