Reply To: Should Gila accept a divorce?

I haven’t followed this story (don’t always get Mishpacha), but there is no happily ever after with most abusive men. She should get her divorce and then see if he gets his act together with the help of extensive therapy and counseling. If he can prove to her that he truly has changed, they can remarry, if he is not a Kohein, and if she did not remarry in the interim. (Yes, I KNOW it’s just a story). Most leopards never change their spots. I doubt that Mishpacha is trying to glorify divorce. But even Hashem lets us know that a divorce may sometimes be necessary. We are not Catholics.
