after all, she filed for divorce over my birthday last year, and filed for the CS OSC, just before my birthday weekend THIS year.
I heard somewhere that people make life changing decisions on important dates. That's when they freak out the most. Not that I'm diminishing what you have gone through, I just think it's just human nature, maybe it's not so much about her being selfish. I found out about H and his "feelings" for OW a week after Valentines Day and he left a week after his 30th birthday. I'm sure others here have similar sitch, especially dealing with MLCers.

So our children suffer a broken home for the rest of their lives
The home is what you make of it. Don't let what your wife has done change what you can do for your children. It took me a long time to stop feeling guilty and blaming H for the sitch he has put D10 in. I will probably always have bits of resentment that pop up now and again, but I try to remember that kids have issues with their parents no matter what/together or not. I grew up in a seemingly good family; parents still married, 3 siblings. My parents got involved with a lot of stuff, the whole town knew my family. As I've gotten older, I resent my mother, I don't even have a relationship with her and my father tried to commit suicide. No family is ever perfect, no individual is ever perfect...all we can do is show our children how much we love them, keep learning how we can be the best parent/person we can be and accept that we are not perfect.
I'm sorry you had a bad day, I hope things get better for you. UB
