And who was the primary caretaker of the children.

Men assume women benefit from divorce because they "automatically" get custody of the kids because they were most odten the one who gave up working in order to have and raise those kids.

But now, you've got kids to raise with grossly diminished earnings or earninfs potential because there is no pay for childrearing. Further, getting a child support aeard is not the same as collecting a child support award. Collectively, fathers are in the arrears for trillions of dollars in child support. So now on top of diminished earnings, you have to add in cash flow issues because you never know month to month if that child support is coming or not.

The man can go out, do things different, and have another family.

The woman, most often finds herself struggling through some pretty horrific financial situations.

He is now vulneravle to being jerked around in the same fashion by custody arrangements.

Divorce screws everyone over.

We haven't even talked about how the kids get screwed.
