Maybe Last Thread in Separating, Found DB 2 Late

[newnamenewlife]

Well, obviously Ds bday trumps Tahoe. I am surprised you would even consider inviting H to Tahoe given your recent resolve that it's over for now. It will confuse your kids to give mixed messages I think.

I'm curious to hear the story of your friend's M and why her H moved back in.

I spoke with my D11's former psychologist recently and I asked her what she thought of my H's idea that he would have dinner with us and put the kids to bed most nights in the beginning of the S. She thought--and I agree--that there needs to be an established period of true S so that the kids aren't getting mixed messages/false hope. Over time, perhaps H can be included at times, but I agree that if the guy is choosing to move out, then he needs to fully experience that and, sadly, so do the kids. You can't be half separated, half together in my book.
