Reply #118: I divorced my first husband after he refused to get treatment for his depression

[EFerrari]

for five years. I was young and maybe didn't handle it very well but whatever, there was a divorce.

He moved 300 miles away after I literally begged him not to. And he never supported our two boys. That was in the 80s and I didn't have the money to hire a lawyer. That was a little before local DAs were helping out.

My ex sister in law has problems she hasn't examined. It's like she's still mad at him for a divorce she initiated. I wasn't in that marriage so I can't have an opinion. But it just seems shortsighted to do something like this. The family has to continue in some form. What is happening now will not help that happen.
