All very valid and true points.....but one thing I do have in common with CIPA is that my H never fully left. He moved out but he is always here. And contrary to what he and OW tried to say, it was not because I "manipulated" any schedule. He agreed to it for our S and I held him to it. I actually was a doormat when it came to weekends....which I wondered if I would kick myself for later but in the end, being available to help watch S on weekends (H is a HUGE golfer, we live in Florida) he appreciated it and saw that I wasn't trying to just kick him in the nads because I was mad and could.
But neither here nor there for CIPA.
For clarification, yes, CIPA, I agree that you should take the job. All things aside, it sounds like a great opportunity and it sounds like they really want you. And it's great to be wanted!
I do believe you taking this job and desire to take the boys with you is going to be her wake up call. I believe you have taken the right steps.....and that's why I said many many posts ago that you losing your job had a silver lining....I think this is going to be a turning point for her that you are going to be a man with a backbone and she needs to get her a$$ on board with the CIPA train! Choo-Choo!
