MMF, I think she talks to the kids that way because they are bringing her guilt and she wants them to stop. Although, this is a terrible thing to say to an 8 and 5 year old.

I have thought same thing about W thinking she has 2 marriages. That is one of the reasons that I think that the A will have to end before the sitch really progresses and I think that it will progress relatively quickly when it does end. I'm prepared to be patient until then.

I have a feeling that your W is going to sit and stew in her own mess until a certain point where she realizes that she has to return to her family. At that point, she'll come back fast and furious. I don't think the level of contact that you have right now will make any difference in this. I think she will wake up one day and say enough of this crap. The fact that her and OW are coming to an end is a good start.
