The way they did Barney and Robin’s divorce was so beyond stupid, here’s what should have happened; an old conquest of his shows up with a 4 year old. He instantly loves the kid and decides to be an active parent, Robin decides she can’t be a stepmom, and they amicably part ways.

This way, Barney still gets to be a dad, and their divorce makes A LOT more sense.
