Oh .... and just curious Lance ... how intact would your detachment be if you found out that your W was entertainng OM in YOUR house while your young children were there and you were out of town?
I'm not saying I shouldn't be more detached ... but even the best of us have "breaking points" ...
OK ... back to the kids PEI
There's nothing "un-detached" about effectively enforcing one's main boundaries. In fact, it's HEALTHY -- and necessary.

What does "un-detaching" have to do with boundaries. You lost me there PUP. She should enforce her boundaries. I never said she shouldn't. You made that up.
She should enforce them from a detached state, not an angry place.
