Read ICornithians, I think chapter 11 or 12. It contains what's refered to as "the Pauline Privilege", or the only Christian excuses for divorce. They include desertion by the non-believer, adultery, and abuse by the non-believer.

As for that large family, that could be a family from my former church. I think they only have 13, though - the 14th died. One of my ancestors had 15, but there were 2 sets of twins. Her husband was in the Army, and filed for compensation for receiving a minie ball in the groin, "where it is still lodged, and causes excruitating pain at times." I tend to think his wife shot him, 'round about Kid #10!!!

But back to the topic: I'm with Honeykiss & Rudey on this one - why enroll your child in a school where you KNOW you don't fit the qualifications?
