Fear of empty nest possible explanation for murder/suicide

<p>07Dad: Re life insurance. My H let his lapse without telling me because he didn’t want to pay the premiums. When I discovered this it had been the case for three years!!! I thought that if he died I’d receive $750,000. Instead, I’d receive nothing. Imagine if that had happened? Well, we have less now because I am making my last tuition payments this year and can sell this big house.</p>

<p>Some teams function better than others.</p>

<p>Not sure why I’m still married to someone who would do that. Sigh.</p>

<p>And yes, I do have life insurance incase he was left alone because our incomes are about equal.</p>

<p>And I couldn’t pay his because I couldn’t afford it, and his is paid from a business account.</p>

<p>Yuck.</p>

<p>So although we can speculate, we don’t know how any other couple/family function.</p>

<p>But the bottom line is that it is odious to use any justification to kill one’s child.</p>
