Hon, I know you can't go back and change what already has happened, but maybe you can take how you know you wanted to do things and go that route.

Agree or not it is important to support the other parent with the kids. The trick is in how you do it. I am more the disciplinarian and ex would just always say "Do as your Mother says." That to me takes away ex's voice in things. Much better to say, "You were told to do xyz and we don't expect to have to tell you again." Thus you provide a united front. I was the one home the majority of the time with the kids and ex did feel a bit like an intruder.

You could turn that around by shaking up your routine when he is home. Do more things that focus on all of you together and not just what "we" always do. That alienates your H in his own house.

Hon, I know your issues go deeper and I don't post much but I would love to see things turn around for you. You can do this.

hugs, kat
