So it would be preferable to you that the man that doesn't love his wife anymore (or vice-versa), should remain in the home, with all the attrition that can and surely happen? You have a very peculiar idea of what growing up is. As to leave the wife with the son, that's what child support is supposed to help with.
I have seen many catholic old school marriages that for the 'sanctity' of marriage are streched to the limit, ending not so well, to the point of one of the parts using the 'untill death set us apart' clause untimely.
To me, its better for such couples to separate before any monogamous betrayal if possible, providing support to the child as possible.
