CA judge to decide if kids can visit paralyzed mom

[Nash B.]

I hope he didn't get any of the settlement money.

Yeah, especially with having three kids to raise. Him getting any of that 8 million sounds horrible.

it's pretty cut and dry. the father is the wrong.
his kids will hate him but i'm guessing he doesn't care or is too dumb to see it.

parenthood isn't about shielding children from experiencing emotions.

It is in California.

I bet the divorce went through before that settlement took place. Sounds like he moved swiftly to cut ties to his old life once it was no longer on easy street.

[SSMAN]

what a dick! not only does he divorce the mother because she was paralyzed, then he doesn't want her to get to visit the kids. that guy is heartless!

While I agree with him divorcing her, I don't agree with keeping the children away from her. But either way it is a tough call. And truly very sad.

LOL @ the women's responses. He's instantly a piece of shit. So predictable.

[Zfan]

Don't worry, that shitbag will get his when the kids are old enough to understand what happened and what he did. It is only a matter of time before the kids turn on him.

That's what I am thinking!

She's been granted temporary visitation.

I guess, till death do you part doesn't mean much to him.

I guess, till death do you part doesn't mean much to him.

Or more than half of the country?

Unfortunately you must be quoted for truth.

I didn't even mention the "in sickness and in health" part.

I agree with the devorce also to avoid finatial disaster but I would never leave my wife. Life is hard and can suck. Man up and handle it.

I was wondering if maybe she was entitled to more benefits or something if divorced. I would guess realistically the parents probably would've had to take care of her as that would be a full time job.

Dunno if anyone has taken care of multiple newborns at once. However, with 3 (wife, mo-in-law and I) of us - premature twins the first year was about all we could handle. With triplets, I would've sold off everything I owned to get a full-time nanny to help. Two is manageable, for 1 person or 2 people. Triplets, no f-ing way it is manageable, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

I'm not sticking up for the guy at all, just thinking there maybe more to that. A dipshit Dad does not divorce the wife and then take full custody of triplets. I could be wrong, but if he's raising them well (obviously with help) - there just could be more to it.

As mentioned above, I do agree with the kids seeing her. Should happen.

Maybe their vows were different like this:

I will probably stay married to you for the rest of my life unless you become sick or a prettier worman comes around.
