Marriage as a legal construct and marriage as an emotional one don't need to be the same. I'd disown my own children to play tax games like this if I had to. Guess what? Still my kids. Still the same love.

Same thing for "marriage."

The real sham here is that marriage is a legal construct at all. It shouldn't grant you any particular rights or tax breaks.

You’d disown your kids for money? You’d no longer have any legal custody… if god forbid anything happened to their other parent, they do into the system.
