awest, I didn't get that impression from what CTH wrote above but if it's true then CTH I agree with awest. The kids have to come first. The way I see it is we've lived most of our lives already the kids are starting theirs and it's a long trek even without having to deal with the D- it's hard for them.
I'm not saying this to you but in general and as a reminder to myself: Put your personal differences aside for the sake of the kids, don't make them the bargaining chips, don't let them suffer or punish them for what STBXW did to you- they're the bigger victims in this moreso than us. Give them everything in your power to make their lives better. So if the communication is the roadblock rise to the challenge and no matter how hurtful it is at the personal level do it for the kids. 5 years from now you'll look back and be proud of yourself. You're a great dad and you do so much for your kids so this is just another one of those things you just have to do for them because you're their true advocate.
I'm glad we finally connected on FB- your kids are so adorable!! they deserve a lifetime of fun and happiness- they're lucky to have you as their dad.
