A lot of divorced people do prioritize their mental state over their kids, both women and men do that . What is the person supposed to do after divorce and losing custody when the kid is exclusively inclined towards the other parent and choses to live with , at the same time the favored parent doesn't let the child associate with the former. In real life people move on ( not necessarily remarry ) from such situation.
As a third person if one feels so sensitive to the equation between a particular father son , can it be imagined how the person himself feels when he has to let go of the child to another parent due to being bound by circumstances.
Being a parent doesn't exempt one from being a human , and it's absolutely fine to prioritize ownself over everything, when nobody else cares. Divorced person who loses custody of the child already has enough trauma to go through . They don't need to be held responsible for taking care of the child when the child willfully dissociated from the person.
Even anupama prioritizes her ownself sometimes .
