your retorts will be seen as you getting last word in. Not as cute jokes or peace offerings. Maybe much later, like in a year
you two can communicate more normally.
TIl then, just keep her abreast of school notifications and document that (email w/attachments will suffice) and
don't work so hard at improving something when it's too raw for her.
It's like picking at the scab saying you want it to heal. It can't heal right now. Leave it alone. Stay strong and consistent for your kids. That's your mission for now.
You do NOT have to communicate "well" with her, ever.
You just have to keep her informed. We can hope she follows suit later. But you can't expect it any time soon unless you feel like seeing her in court.
But the more you keep her informed, the better you will look in court IF she brings you back there. And it's good for the son to have both parents know the real deal at school, so he can't play as many games with you.
Don't underestimate the value of him having sibling time either. He loves and misses his mom and his sister, so this living arrangement does not shock me even if all was going well with you two.
There may come a time when they both change their minds & come live with you,
but just don't make your first response a request for child support from their mom, okay? OR a "victory" for you.
Hang in there.
