The script says, "Children are resilient, they will be okay". Try telling that to a chld who misses the other parent.
That seems to be the common refrain alright, spoken by pro-divorce drones and otherwise unknowing fools everywhere. All of them in denial.
What I'm trying to figure out is how W went from there and took it even further: If I stand in the way of her desire to destroy the M and the family, then somehow I am the one harming the children... by harming their mother via denying her proposed solution for "happiness".
(I did mention that she is insane, right?)
Lwb, yes, our children can indeed become "fine" over time and with a lot of love and careful effort. But in no way can anyone in their right mind make the claim that -- even in the best of situations -- children come away unscathed by D.
