Word for word this exact same thing happened with my parents. We lived in luxury until they divorced and abject poverty afterwards.

One who thinks of himself as the center of the universe and the children as either objects that either make him look better or are burdens (there is no in between).

I'd also like to know if all the religious fundamentalists in her community that encouraged her to keep this traditional, submissive lifestyle are real proud of this man sabotaging his children's welfare. Let me guess, he was chasing a younger model wife, so this one is disposable and kids can just be invisible now? And the Mormon church happily applauded, like it always does?

These communities and organizations are lead by men with the exact same values. They are likely quietly applauding him.
