Can we please voluntarily end this thread from grlimilakinskeeper, or whatever her screen name is...it's getting too personal, and not very productive.

But you've just stated that your kids have seen doctors (orthodontists, podiatrists, physiologists) because of situations where intervention MIGHT be deemed helpful.
CLW's kids are in a situation where intervention MIGHT be deemed helpful.. . .but she's saying she won't take them to counseling UNTIL a problem arises.
Mind there are children who are emmotionally abused in such a way that they develop the tendancy to blame themselves for everything. However, that sistuation has absolutely nothing to do with divorce. Lots of them living in perfectly intact homes. If your children tend to do this...yes...I would say that constitutes a problem worthy of attention, whether you are divorcing, or not.

No, children are not "selfish individuals" they are egocentric, in that they believe that the world revolves around them because cognitively they have a difficult time taking another person's perspective.
Grimal noticed a problem with her child's ability in math. She dealt with it. I don't agree with her analysis of "problem" but that would not be the point. By comparison, she is not proposing she wait until her child "fails" the divorce. She is waiting to see if the child shows signs of problems with her ability to deal with the divorce. What you are suggesting actually, is that all parents rush their children off to math tutors the first day the child is introduced to the concept of "number". Because heaven knows, a good number of 'em end up having trouble with math.
