TIL 18 isn't too young for marriage.

And, you're wrong. The only reason I stayed married as long as I did is because people I respected told me marriage is work, and I would suck it up. You have a preconceived notion that I tried to break with very personal details, but I can see that you are firm in your beliefs.

You've also made assumptions about me that I've made comments that prove aren't true. Comments like, "I didn't like who I was when I was with him", " He wasn't just no good, he was no good for me"," I was young and dumb". But, what you didn't understand was that I came from a family that drilled into my parents that the kids came first. When I had kids, it was my turn to hear it. And, divorce was part of putting my kids first. I understand that you don't agree.

You've also made another error with your assumptions, or maybe my honesty confused you. I was raised by a single man, and I have a stepfather that loves me like his own. My ex husband didn't meet my standards because I was raised with shining examples.

It's my opinion that you're the one that needs to snap out of it. Because you had a chance to ask questions, but you chose to tell me about myself instead. Being a stay at home parent may be a different type of work, but it's still work. Case in point how much would it cost to hire people to do the jobs the stay at home parents does?

Btw. I have raised two grown men that identify as men, and have a preferance for women. Every single bit of fan fiction you've made up about me is wrong.
