I've been thinking more about this...The boys saw me stick up for that extra day with them. I think it's good they saw me do that.
In the great scheme of things, what's an extra day anyways, right? Maybe it's a power struggle with my W, a chance to test me and see if I have changed...who knows...
But in the eyes of my boys, I fought for that extra day and got it. The fact that we get to be together for one extra full day is important in their eyes. That's what matters most in the end.
Someone said on this forum that you have to win the respect of your WAS by standing your ground and not appear weak. Is this what we are talking about here? It's a fine line to show my w that I have changed by not fighting her on every point,and, standing my ground to get an extra day with my boys...

Boys learn how to act from their fathers. If they see a doormat, they'll end up like doormats. You did the right thing, for the right reasons. Two thumbs up.
