She has file a motion requesting that I pay ALL household expenses, alimony and support prior to the D being finalized. My L has filed a counter motion. I asked W to consider a collaberative approach and suggested that she speak with her L about this. I also made my position clear again about a 50/50 split with the kids. She finally answered me and said NO. She does not want to let me have the kids 50/50. I explained to her that right now I take my D to school everyday and that the flexiability that I have with my job allows me to do this. She counter by saying that she has a "back up" that can do this.
I was quite pissed off but continue to be pleasent. I REFUSE to allow her to control my emotions. I just find it very fustrating that if this is about the kids why she is reluctant to split them. I am also a little pissed at myself because I probably should have take an aggressive approach much ealier in this process but hey - I will continue to try and do what is right.
Feeling pretty crappy today. I will contact my L and let her know that W is not willing to agree to a 50/50 split.
It interesting....I look at W now and feel sorry for her. I feel sorry that she is running. I can see clearly now that I am dealing with an angry teenager who feels that she is entitled to everything. I believe in my heart that one day she will realize the impact of her actions but that is her cross to bear. I also feel for the kids, specifically my D. I will do the best I can to continue to be the best Dad that I can be - this I control...the rest I leave up to God.
God Bless, Eric
