As an attorney, I am not often surprised anymore by much of what extent people will go to just to prove a point but today, this one did catch me off guard. Apparently it is now en vogue to have a party when your divorce is final. The coffin pictures is one of many products that can be purchased which will allow you to take your marriage license and your wedding band and give it a proper burial. The psychological advantages are obvious but I am not sure about the ettiquette. Apparently most women who throw the party will invite other divorced friends and make a movie night out of it to watch man-bashing type movies. Not surprisingly, the divorced men throw parties involving both genders and celebrate a "coming out" of sorts announcing their eligibility. Either way, it strikes me as a little odd if children are involved that you would make such a festive event out of saying "I Don't" but I hear a lot of weird stories as an attorney so who can judge....
As with most things, it depends on the intent involved. It would seem to me that the type of person who wants to purchase the coffin, has NOT let go of their anger. They are bitter, and they need to continue to feed that anger, with a party, etc. Not exactly the kind of healing and letting go that I have realized, my clients have realized, nor that would most benefit divorcees and their children.
ReplyDeleteWhile I do believe divorce can be a positive transition, the intention is to move forward, accepting the past and the lessons it has to offer.
Family law issues usually arise in the context of divorce proceedings, child custody disputes, and child protective proceedings. Family law matters are often complex and are usually handled during periods of high stress and emotion. It can be difficult to make life-impacting decisions under such circumstances. For this reason, it is important to have a family law lawyer help you wade through the chaos. An experienced attorney should be able to help you see the larger issues at play and provide the advice you need to make informed decisions about your future.
