It was quite frustrating trying to clip this as I could not even clip the subheads only. You have to go to the article to read it.

I agree with all of them. I've had to go through a divorce with our daughter and it's been terrible for us even though, all things considered, fairly friendly. It's the children who are going to be the most hurt.
