Whitney,

This whole journey is still amazing to me. I am so sick of all of it. My XH made a big leap back into the tunnel today and I am really feeling done with all of his games and stuff. If I don't put an end to it, it will never end and I can't live like this anymore. He is not going to be better anytime soon, and I am sick and tired of waiting, it is too hard.

The email from your MIL is very perplexing to me. I don't know what to think of that, and it isn't me, so I can only imagine what you think and feel about it. That is a weird one, forsure. My guess is that she has huge guilt over what her daugher has done. I know if it were my daughter, I would! I have and continue to try to raise my kids with compassion, morals, integrity, honesty, and to treat people as you would want to be treated. They have watched my XH do horrible things to me and really to them too...and I haven't always handled it right, but in the end I have used it as a learning tool. If it was my child doing what your XW is doing, I would be beyond disappointed in her, as my daughter and as the person I raised. I don't care how much you love your child, wrong is wrong and as a parent you know that deep down. But, this is one of those things you will never really know the answer to and it is best to just forget it and move on.

Have a great time with your kids when they get back. They will be so thrilled to see you, you are an amazing dad and I so wish I had chosen a "real" man and father like you for my kids. My kids got jiped and it [censored]!!
