ur view on what happens after the ending??


Imo, i got this feeling that they would get together and remarry cos they seemed to care for eachother and after all this court battle for son's coustedy they develop a mutual respect for each other's postive side aswell.

What do u think might have happened ?? just curious :-)

I didn't get that impression. It was more like that he was "sacrificing" himself so that she could live "at home" with the kid.

reply

I wanted and feel the story ended on a POSITIVE note, but you seem to be NEGATIVE about it.

Ofcourse, we will attract eachother - Coulomb's Law !!!! LoL

in my mind they started to date again and took it slowly, and then go back together for the sake of the child at the end of the day if they both love the child enough, that should get them back together.

^^^

I am of ur opinion too.

reply

I agree with you, too! I want to feel positive that it ended in a good note.

If they got back together "for the sake of the child," that would be a terribly depressing. Just because a couple isn't happy together does not imply they don't love their child enough.

The wouldn't have been happy together if they just got together for Billy's sake. So mny parents stay together for the 'kid's sake'. Kids aren't stupid. They can tell when their parents aren't happy together. Who do you think the kid will blame for his parents being unhappy together??? He will blame himself because his parents stayed together because of him so he will think it is his fault his parents are unhappy. I've seen it happen with some of my friends. My parents are also divorced and I had a very happy childhood. My parents made a pact to never fight in front of us or speak a bad word about each other, ad they never did. I never felt like I was in some type of tug of war. That's what makes divorce harsh on kids...is when the parents fight, talk bad about each other, etc. If all divorced parents treated each other with the respect my parents did, then children would handle divorce much better. It is NOT the divorce that is usually so hard but the way many parents act during and after the divorce that is hard on the kids. Those parents just need to grow up and put their children's feelings an well-being first.

They all made french toast and lived happily ever after.

reply

But the important question is did they still continue to fold the french toast. I believe people have different opinions on that subject, so I may have to start a separate thread for that.

reply

No. They had long since grown apart.

No, I don't think they would ever get back together. They just weren't right for each other. I think they stayed separate but came to a more agreeable arrangement between them, where the kid would live with his dad but he would get to see his mom often.

The cable on the elevator snapped which sent Joanna plunging to her death. When the plunging elevator hit the ground floor a spark was sent flying into a file of dirty rags lying on the ground floor near a large vat of heating oil. The heating oil, which was unfortunately located directly under the boiler, ignited quickly and overheated the boiler which exploded killing everyone in the building.
