All Hope is lost/Help - Part 2

[Evie]

Forgot to mention above, that H does see a lot more of the boys now and makes more of an effort with them. I get the impression sometimes that i'm an end to a means for looking after them. I don't think he'd be too bothered if I wasn't in the picture at all.

H has just come to collect boys for the night, he stayed for half an hour, had a cup of tea and chatted. He was very tired (arn't we all?). Anyway S2 was behaving really well and sitting quietly with his dad and I commented on how well behaved he was being. H replied it was b/c he (h)was there and s2 was getting undivided attention (got me cross a bit, i do the best I can considering i'm chasing my tail most of the time), so i said well you'll have to spend more time here then.... h replied 'no' not in a blunt sort of way, but in a drawn out way that means no, I don't want to.

So i guess i've had a lttle knock back tonight.
