No doubt their kids will be delighted to find they have “coparents” in their lives.

He probably got fed up with having to do obeisance every time he came into the room.................

[Ghost of SVR4]

heh-heh...yeah, okay. The bickering should start in a month or two; then the lawyers, the inventories, the accusations the courts. It'll get real "conscious" soon.

[CaptainK]

New age gobbledygook to avoid saying they are getting a everyday divorce.

[allendale]

More New Age nonsense. There are two children involved. Divorce is never easy or pleasant from their perspective.

[exit82]

Guess that’s the “View from the Top”.

[Toespi]

Their kids? You mean APPLE and MOSES?

[tanknetter]

Keep in mind that Mom is one of the most high-demand actresses on the planet and Dad is the frontman for a popular band.

How much time to you think those kids really spend with their parents, as opposed to the staff their parents hire to “parent” for them?

[Wolfie]

Seriously. When your lifestyle and financial outlook is not going to change the least little bit, I imagine divorce can be pretty amicable.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Divorce tears the kids to pieces. There’s no way to deny that.

Finally, they get to the part about how to uncouple consciously and “avoid the drama of divorce.” You shouldn’t think about it in terms of your marriage having failed, because (a) as we learned, the expectation that it would last was based on an outdated construct

Some people in Genesis lived until 900 years old and they had marriages.

Outdated construct? Did that come from the script of the Matrix?

RE: Some people in Genesis lived until 900 years old and they had marriages.

The problem is these people don’t believe in the Bible.

He’s a homo and she’s annoying.

[Lx]

Touche’

[txhurl]

Are they consciously coupling with other people yet?

[agrarianlady]

Er — the earliest marriages lasted for hundreds of years.

[Cheerio]

Gweneth who? I should care because.............?

[Jack Hydrazine]

Are you accusing her of being a J.A.P.? LOL!

[MissH]

I would have been much more comfortable if they would have named their second child Banana or Grape. Where is the consistency in Apple and Moses. There was obvious confusion between this couple from the beginning!
