Sally -
What I meant was that my only chance of saving the marriage is the unlikely event that she considers the kids. She is focusing exclusively on herself, at the expense of the kids.

The boys are old enough to know the truth... that she alone wants the divorce.

My only therapy is here on DB. I know, I should see a professional. But, at this point, I see my money as better spent on an attorney.

Thank you for the supportive words...
