Ok. So maybe think about somethings you can do to change that "Typical husband. Come home and watch tv, play on computer, not communicate" image with your kids.....maybe have family bowling night, or start doing puzzles as a family, something to interact together. Work on you and the kids a bit. Maybe start to include her in those nights, or at least letting her know what you have planned. Invite/inform her and let her know it's going to happen whether she's there or not and there should be no pressure for her to participate.
