Hey, MC! Finally got here and read up on your sitch. I'm so sorry that your W is treating you the way she is - the caged bird stuff and all. You are obviously a really great father and person, and you've been a great husband. It's terrible that she can't see that.
I don't have any real advice to give, but I will pray for you and your kids. I hope for nothing but the best for you all, and I wish you luck in detaching.
As hollow as this is going to sound, your W will regret her decision one day. And when that day comes, even if that regret is meaningless to you, you will at least be able to say that you preserved your values and fought as hard as you could.
Take care, and may God bless you and keep you, ~Nas
