There is something I want to share that I tell my 8 and 9 year old boys.

I ask them:

What do you do when you do not like someone at school?

Do you tease them and make fun of them and interact with them or do you walk on by and ignore them?

When someone makes fun of you they in some weird way like you. Making fun of you makes them smile and that is the greatest gift you can give.

I say it like this: There are kids in your school who look different or act different right? What do you do? Ignore them right?

My kids always understand although hard they get it becasue they do it and they can feel it.

You cannot feel what your wife is doing so you get confused and shook up.

If she wanted it to be over she would go and be gone. I mean really gone. Everything is the rollercoaster. So go satnd in the line and be glad your not on the rollercoaster and watch with a bag of popcorn.

As far as the house goes my wife does the same thing, always goes in fact my wife feels she has to file divorce for some reason to get away or closure or something. But every night she sleeps in the same bed as me even though I BEGGED her to show me signs she is serious. I BEGGED HER.

Do you really need to be begged to avoid someone you want out of your life for the rest of it?
