[quote=runningoutoftime]have never gone through this mess we're going through. I'm starting to understand that splitting up & moving on is best for H & I. However, I know for a fact that it will have a big impact on D4. Yes, she'll survive, but it will be hard on her.

Yes, I agree but I think in some of our sitchs where the H or W is acting so dysfunctional, like my H was living at home and either out with his OW including overnights and out of town trips, and then texting her frequently when he was rarely at home, angry and yelling, etc.--I think my kids actually have a much healthier, less stressful life now that H has moved out.
I am getting them therapy now, but I think they probably needed it even more when their "crazy" Dad was living in the house with us acting so awful when he was here. I know my C frequently said at the time the way we were living wasn't healthy for my kids, and now that H has moved out I can really see how unhealthy it was for them and I of course. I don't think I would ever be able to do that again and put the kids and I through that kind of awful experience again. Karen
