Your W is a pretty mean person. This is not the first time she has deliberately said something to hurt you, for no reason, other than you won't bow down to her wishes.
She does lash out, for sure. Always has. I learned to just let it bounce off.

I would get going on that lawyer soon. She may've done so already.
She has contacted a lawyer. She told me so. She said her lawyer assured her a judge would order me to allow the kids to travel overseas with her.

And this "dysfunctional marriage" she keeps harping on --- she could've tried fixing it. I think there is something seriously wrong here --- an underlying feeling of selfishness and toughness. She would make a good salesperson. I think you are too close to the sitch, and from our perspective (if you are telling everything) she's not going to back down unless she is forced to do so by law. I rather feel sorry for the OM. I doubt he's getting the full truth just as you aren't either.
Yeah, she hangs onto this notion that our M was unfixable. Pretty funny for a MC to say that to her own H. My W is a brutal mix. She has many positive attributes. She's smart, and fun, and interesting. However, loyalty and committment are not very strong qualities in her, which is tough for me to accept. And yes, I agree, there is no way she was truthful with OM either.

Protect yourself, and you protect your children too. She is their mother, but she will not hesitate to keep them from you, by the sounds of it. And, how can kids be travelling around the world, not going to school, etc. Sounds very unstable. And isn't it a little dramatic, with the world is her country (or whatever) and you won't deny her giving them that, yadda yadda.
My friends think she is unstable too. She is a dreamer, always has been. She'll make all these plans to make one dream happen, but then her whims change, and her plans wither and die.
