My son did the same thing, but he's doing better now. Your W wants to see you taking care of S. She sees that as an act toward her. Do everything you can for your S, and PRAY God will protect him from the harshness of reality right now. He doesn't need to be feeling that so much at 8 years old. It is really hard, but you can do it and your W will see what a loving dad you are, and that is attractive to her - guaranteed.
We can talk ourselves into defeat or we can talk ourselves into victory - we are creatures of our thinking.
