I'm so torn about this whole boundaries thing. If I insist on strict boundaries, then I'm forcing my W to fully live with the consequences of her actions, but I also lose out on quality time with my kids. I wouldn't wish this choice on anyone!


I definately relate...I HATE splitting my kids. It is like torture. I absolutely hate not being able to have access to them when they are with him. Pure torture.
