Unfortunately, that is the biggest misconception when it comes to anullment. Anullment of the marriage just means that the marriage was NOT a valid sacrament in the Catholic church. It was still a marriage and the children are still legitimate it just was NOT a sacrament. In our case it would be because we withheld the fact from the Catholic church that my XW was pregnant.
Sorry I didn't answer the Why but you are right, I do want to understand the things that she is going through so that I don't feel bitterness and anger toward her. I take the blame for several things that went wrong within our marriage and have worked on myself through reading and learning and IC to help me with tose things. I believe I have forgiven her for what she has done to me and the kids and it will be a long journey for all of us.
Thanks again!
