Although I do find I'm a little more tolerant of it when kids aren't involved.
You know, I am so tired of people putting childless marriges on the back burner, or minimizing the hurt or condoning the possibilities of extra-marital affairs when no children are involved. I was a single woman for many years without children. And whenever it involved working a Christmas Eve or holiday, the people with children always took prescedence when it came to giving them time off.
I've never taken a stand here on any of these boards before, but I really don't appreciate anyone stereotyping or categorize childless marriage simply on the premise that marriages with children are more important. I'm sorry, but that is an unfair statement, and I needed to voice it. We are ALL HUMAN beings, and because of that, we all have the same deep hurts and feelings of loss, whether or not there are children involve.
Now, that said, I am also a victim of a divorce of my parents. I was four years old, and the youngest of the clan of five kids. I KNOW how much it hurts the child. So, please when you flame me, keep in mind that I've been on the negative receiving end of both worlds.
