When Divorce Seems Unfair

In this episode of The Intelligent Divorce with Dr. Mark Banschick, M.D., our topic is Fairness.

Many of us going through a divorce have felt we have been wronged and that much of what we are going through is unfair. We had hopes and dreams that our marriage would last forever and then one day, perhaps out of the blue, our partner tells us they want out of the marriage, you’re served divorce papers or you discover your spouse has been having an affair. Even the court system fails us in their attempt of fairness.

This can leave us feeling so betrayed and it all feels so unfair. As parents, we have a duty to teach our children about fairness. The only fair outcome of your divorce would be to free yourself from what you believe was not fair and move on to a happier life, and in the process, provide an example to your children that there’s a better life out there with acceptance.

This program also features a powerful example of forgiveness from the biblical story of Job. This is a MUST HEAR PROGRAM for any listener who feels that their divorce wasn’t fair
