I don't think you should try to control what the kids send to him. They have their own feelings, and their own emotions, and it's not your place, or his, to try to control them.
I agree with coach. I wouldn't bring it up with her. If he wants to tell her he didn't leave because he doesn't love her, then he should do it. Unless she asks, I also don't think you should be telling her that it was his choice to leave. When you talk about it, it would be fair to say it isn't what you wanted, but it may have been necessary. The less negative emotion you stir up between the kids and their dad, the better, in my opinion. I'm forgetting, how old are they?
