I agree with you both. They've got lots of work to do. he's done a lot of work on himself, but she's only just starting to get her sh!te together. (and the part I didn't mention is that she doesn't work, and now that the money has run out from the sale of house etc, he's a much better option than the dole queue ... but that's my cynical side coming out)
She's agreed to go to MC for the first time, which is a good start. The thing I worry about with him, is that he so wants to have his family back, he'll put up with a lot. That's a journey he has to take.
What I think the story illustrates is that his dignity and respect, got them to this stage - he DB'd like a pro ... their love and commitment for each other are going to have to take them the rest of the way.
Yep - I've put him onto this place ...
