Separating couple cuts house in half
Categories: Divorce & custody
With their children grown, a Cambodian couple who decided to separate had only to divide their possessions between them. Rather than go through the legal process of divorce, which they found too costly, the couple came up with their own unique plan of settling their property dispute -- they cut their house in half. Literally.The wife will keep the standing half, and the husband -- who went to live with his parents -- will reassemble his half on another part of their property. They also divided their land into four parts, one part for each of them, and one for each of their children.
The cause of their dispute? The husband felt that his wife didn't take good enough care of him when he was ill, while she resented having to pay for his medications. Maybe he's one of those men that catches the dreaded man cold and after 40 years she couldn't take it anymore.
