I know y'all. I think it's going to be ok. I told the kids we would talk about homeschooling vs. public school before the hearing, so I guess in November and that gives them 3 months to try it out. My guess would be D9 would want to stay in public school (she's my social butterfly) but I wouldn't agree to that most likely unless she got some special ed resources. My son may not want to stay at public school; don't know; he doesn't talk to anyone at the school, but he hasn't been bullied or made fun of as far as I know.
All the stuff about his prior lack of parenting with the kids and they're in the apt. alone will still be true Dec. 7th. My L also advises me to keep up the Tues. activities, and X is going to have to pick up the kids from the church if he wants them Tues. night. In order to do that he will need to leave an hour or so early from work every week, so I'm thinking that will cause problems for him.
I do know he's a snake, and his motives seem to be primarily self-motivated, but I think God always turns things to good in the end, so I believe things will work out ok eventually. The L said the new judge might be a better judge than the last one too, so that's some good news.
The play "Peter Pan" I'm doing crew work on is starting tonight; a lot of fun, great people, and lots of running around. I love to keep busy most of the time. One of the guys on the crew (married don't get excited) is my age and he is a lot like X, and explains stuff to me. He says he was like X 10 years ago before getting some wisdom. That X is screwing up and stuff and he thinks he'll realize it at some point...Well, just b/c my friend did, doesn't mean X will though. But it's interesting kind of hearing X's viewpoint through him.
