Can you get her to retrovaille? I'm really banking on it, and I haven't heard one bad thing from it. I heard that many attorneys send their clients there before proceeding with divorce.

I sooo see me in your wife. I was home alone with son (stay at home mom) and the OM were always available to me. H never called me, never text me, never emailed me. The OM always cared more about me it seemed. I now know that is not true, but that is what I thought then.

As soon as she sees that you will not budge on the kids she will think more about this....no loving mom wants to have her kids part time. Telling her that you just want 6 months to really try is good and you are right that OM cannot be involved in that 6 months. She said day by day because she does not want to give up OM.

hang in there, H4h.
