She must be seeing a lawyer...what now?

[Awoken]

It's been a day since we talked to our kids about W filing for D.
They are coping in different ways, and of course I'm worried about them.

D17 has poured her energies into a new boyfriend. It's gonna be a complicated relationship for her, and she's really rushed into it. They made their relationship "official" last night, a few hours after we had our D talk. First, he's in college, and his mother doesn't approve of the relationship so he wants them to keep it hidden. I'm glad D17 tells me all about this, but I'm just worried she's making poor choices. It's not reall like her

S13 spent most of the day in bed, saying he felt sick. He's taking it badly, and is pretty depressed. I know he needs time. I left him alone most of the day, just checking in on him. I managed to get him to go out for dinner and to the grocery store. I told him I needed help with the errand, but I really just wanted to get him out of the house.

W left early in the morning to have lunch with her girlfriend, and didn't return until early evening. It's just as well. Right now, I can't look at her. I need to work on that; I just want to be cheerful and indifferent.
