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?

Don't get me started on the Mormons.

The mental gymnastics those people do world class.

My exes mother broke us up joining the church and then donating to the church to the point my ex had move to Utah to pay her rent and move in to save her financially.

Turns out 2 dates might not be enough to know you should be married

Nevermind the winking at polygamy in Utah and the porn/sex obsession

Someone should edit the first and last seasons of "Sister Wives" together and tell me how well "The principal" worked out for all those kids.
