Yet perhaps that is what really is the root of all of this, how easy it is to throw in the towel and walk. Especially more for some than others. With or without accountability for the blow back that their walking away may cause for others.

So maybe throw out the big D - and we all agree? it's the walk away that causes the hurt, the giving up, giving up on of what could have been or should have been or might have been, whenever the initial walk happened.
Nettie for the win!! Yes, thats exactly what I was trying to say in all my ramblings. I'm against the giving up without a fight part of divorce. I'm sick of people just walking out on their families because they don't care enough to fight for the happiness of their children. If Jeff and I had divorced, it would have meant a more peaceful home for our children. BUT... we worked so hard for a year and a half in counselling and now, not only do we have a peaceful home for our kids, but our marriage is still intact! I would never say that a couple should remain together miserable and angry and hateful. Thats NEVER good for kids to see. But go get help! Go work on it! I can *almost* guarantee that things will get better if both people are committed to making it work!
