Quote From: vaughn15I know that I need to wait until I see the show but sure have some questions. After 3 children, how does one get an annulment unless one of the other was not legally divorced from a previous spouse or whatever...Anxious to see this show.....

There are many reasons why the church will grant an annulment-one of them is simply that one of the spouses was too immature to appreciate the gravity of the vow at the time it was undertaken. To obtain an annulment from the church the spouses also need to prove that they have done everything possible to support the marriage. It isn't easy to obtain, so this Dad wasn't just a jerk who walked out.
I am disappointed to see people spreading the idea that a catholic annulment invalidates the children of the marriage. That idea is part of Mynde's problem and is simply untrue. I hope she is able to talk this over with a priest and gain some understanding of it.
