Hey sweetie,
The most important thing is to be a good role model for your children. Be the best YOU you can be. Stick to your CORE VALUES and shine.

The key is to set enforceable boundaries (that you control) with natural consequence to him. Give him choices. Go read the boundaries thread.


"What is best for the kids is best for me."

The best thing for the kids is having two responsible parents that respect each other. Is this what you have?

Respect yourself to set healthy boundaries for YOU. This will gain respect from H (Even if he gets really angry )
