Co-parenting will be the future heading forward.
as woman use divorce as a tool, men should see it too, sure, you might be one to pay for child support, and in some state alimony but, it's better than being in a relationship that never was.
why do i say this? cuz some father never wanted to leave, but the woman did, and he had zero say in this. if they don't feel like they should stick around, why should you?
having a child does not really change your life, its just another thing to deal.
@RodrickSage - Gotta say: personally, becoming a father changed my life completely. I found I had an entirely different perspective on the world and my place in it. And perhaps most importantly, it changed what I see as my responsibility to the world.
And this might be an IQ related thing... 
But it is impossible for me to not care about the world, because now my child is a part of it.
Just 2¢ I thought was worth adding. 
@YoMomz @RodrickSage
This exactly.
