Walking away and being OK with it is all he's ever seen in his life. For a little while longer, I'll be providing that 180 for him. Maybe I'm just deluding myself, but I'm showing him that there is another option, an option his parents never chose: being there for each other and your children. I am not going to be his Mom and just say, "My needs are the most important, nobody needs a relationship and kids are resilient." Well, at least I'll be saying that until July 14, though it's not like I'm hounding him or saying it every day.
