Just further regarding my response to W and the truth that a lot of my anger revolves around access to the kids, because it felt that W was using the kids to hurt me. I did not allow anything else, other than the revelation of OM and the EA (or PA) to hurt me.

So my response is simply an attempt at a continued 180 to remind W can no longer hurt me with restricting access to the kids. The "ask" rather than saying "I demand". That's selfish on my part, as it will hurt the kids, I understand that. That will be fixed as W works on her parent plan, I then counter with my own, and then we get to mediation. This summer has already been loosely discussed by W and myself already in a previous email. We already discussed the kids can be with me a significant portion of summer holidays as W works and the kids can hang with my folks.

Did I mention that my parents live on a gorgeous water front lot on a lake. Complete with large dock, multitude of water sport and ATV activities, etc, etc... Kind of like the perfect summer holiday for the kids. smile
