What do they have to say about that? I know of children who lived in miserable households because of verbally and emotionally abusive fathers, and only derived a sense of hope when the parents divorced. This issue must be addressed in the sense of fairness.

All the one-sided chatter about how nasty and detrimental divorces are must come to a halt! It has become blither, nothing more, without a fair assessment of the good side of divorce. And, believe me, there IS a good side. Divorce is sometimes the healthiest course of action for all involved — adults and children. Many famous and successful people have come from divorced families. I despise the term “broken” families. Sociologists and others concerned with divorce and the “social order” MUST address the issue of successful divorces in a rational way!

I’ve found it interesting how often and how quickly my criticism gets a response when I take the extra step of linking the target.
