For anyone that has had the WAW leave aznd has children, quick question:

my s(10) is dealing with this in the way I expected very emotional and calling my W during the day and leaving long messages asking her to come back, in some cases pleading with ehr to come back. She doesnt repsond - except to send me a text message saying she will see him on Tuesday at a soccer match.

m s(12) is a different story. He seems to be blaming me for the seperation. At every chance he says things like "why did you make her leave," why did you fight with her etc...

Since this is not true and I did not make her leave, I am not sure how to respond. Should I just ignore his comments, Should I tell the truth, or is there a better way to handle this? I dont really want to tell him his mother left on her own accord. That should be her responsibility. I dont know, maybe he does know this but doesnt want to accept it?

Any thought?
