Going straight forward...antlers 6th thread.

[antlers]

My kids aren't receptive to serious talks with me. This separation and divorce has been a real b!tch so far, and it's getting worse. My kids know I love them, but they are at the age of puberty and they are flush with new hormones, new feelings, and new thoughts. Their mom and oldest daughter are taking advantage of that under the circumstances, and influencing the kids, especially youngest daughter, in a negative way against me. The kids are also manipulative at this age...and boy are they manipulating.
I wish they were receptive to things I have to say, but they aren't.
