Born and raised here in WA. However I lived in farm country on the east side of the state, which is the conservative side. The whole states politics are driven by 3 counties with the majority of the population.
If this was happening in SC, she would have been booted out of the house, I would have the kids, she wouldnt' get a dime, and depending on the county, I could beat her with a stick no bigger than my thumb on the courthouse steps on sundays. I likely wouldn't execute my right to the stick beating though.
