BeingMe, I actually had a chance to read you post this weekend. Unfortunately I couldn't remember my user name for my home comp, so I couldn't respond.:) I actually used your post in a conversation I had w/ W though. Hope you don't mind. I also tried to get W to think what it was like growing up w/ her M not there all the time. Wanted her to think about what it might be like for our kids after a D. She just explained both of them away. She justified it by saying that she'll make sure the kids know that she L them & maybe they'll have to go to C. Then she just said the sitch about her M is completely different. Her M was dead. She'll still be around. (Just only every couple of days.) This is same type of response & justification she had last year when she dropped the first bomb. She expects everything to be completely normal. We'll just share the kids. She'll want to travel together. She feels a family is what you make of it. So she feels she can make a family out of her and the boys. She admits she is causing or will be causing great pain to everyone involved, but she keeps explaining she has to be true to herself.
As for the story, it is very sad but true. I must confess. I am guilty of that as well.
