Dear Jan,
In no way would I ever begin to suggest that one is easier than the other, hence I had hoped that I had phrased it well when I wrote, “Many who have gone through this (divorce) say that they believe death would be easier to deal with.” In my work I continue to uphold and pray for families and the children of divorce. As you so aptly pointed out there is an opportunity for positive relationships with the other parent. So often unfortunately, anger and bitterness stand in the way. I do not believe either situation is easier. Different but not easier. And I pray that God will uphold you and your children in the times of your deepest needs.
