Yitzchok’s writing style is not the same as that of Joseph. Whether or not they actually are the same person, which I do not believe they are, is irrelevant. I don’t agree 100% with everything they’re saying either, but it doesn’t help anything to just scream insults and accusations of trolling at anyone with whom you disagree.

Yitzchok, I get why you don’t want the frum world to treat divorce with the same frivolity as the secular world. It could be that there is some healthy level of stigma that should exist on the institution of divorce in general. But, how does anything productive come from the kids being treated poorly/having to struggle is shidduchim? The kids didn’t do anything wrong. Even if somebody held that divorce were forbidden like some other religions do, why would anyone want the kids to be the one receiving the punishment for it?
