At the beginning of this he told the girls that all of the kids were unwanted
My H never said this but at the time that he left my youngest D was 10. He told her he had wanted to leave for 10 years. I don't think I need to spell out how that made her feel. She is currently the one who is less interested in seeing him (closely followed by D17)
