Valora, yes, I would love to know if there are studies about children and effects of this choice. Because I’m really not sure if this is doing any good to anyone involved. But his premise is this one: he doesn’t know anyone who is a child of divorced parents that didn’t suffer because of it…or blamed themselves. So that’s the main reason behind his choice. And I understand that you would put your children and their benefit first…there’s no question about it…but, at what cost?

And…to make things more interesting….at the moment I am without a job. Lost the last one due to sick leave that was a bit longer. And my wonderful employee used it as a reason to fire me after 6 years. I wasn’t worried since I had another job offer but that one…turned out not to be a good one. So…the situation is not great now, and I’m considering moving to Ireland (we are from Croatia). That would probable be good thing for my career and an end of this relationship. So…that’s another possible direction now, that is a real option.
