The Good, the Bad, and the Funny 4

I think my kids are doing OK. After that Oprah show, I did get concerned but Dr. Numan said something that resonated with me. Paraphrasing- He mentioned how we should never talk bad about our the other parent. The one exception is when they have done something very harmful, like have an affair, abandonememnt or abuse. Then it would be Ok to break that cardinal rule and refer to that spouse as not being well in their mind to make right decisions. Still, that really is not talking badly. He said it was OK to say that Mommy and Daddy have been making each other very sad, etc...

I was so relieved. My H told my D he moved to his Aunt's because we were arguing, but I thought even happily married couples need to argue. It is not an indication for divorce. I was glad to hear that from an expert but I cannot see my H actually agreeing to do anything for the kids right now. he just keeps lying and has actually said nothing to them. I sense they are being treated like second class citizens right now, but that could be me projecting my own life on them because of my Dad.
