W texts me today to call her to talk about something important. I'm thinking great, what now.
She says she may have to file for guardianship for her/our 7-yr old nephew in the next few weeks as her sister is about to lose her kids.
She wants to make sure that I will not use this against her in the custody for our kids.
I tell her I am concerned that this will negatively impact our kids and her ability to spend time with our kids which is already lacking. Nephew is a very troubled child and will require lots of time and attention.
I tell her in no way am I saying to kick him to the street or allow him into foster care but I'd like to discuss a few points with her.
I tell her I didn't know we were heading for a custody battle to which she didn't really respond. I told her I'm not prepared to answer anything about potential custody of our kids at this time.
I also tell her that I love our nephew and see where she is coming from and see how this may be the best thing for him.
I'm concerned but want to be supportive.
Man, the day after she tells me she cheated on me a few months ago she dumps this on me.
You couldn't make this stuff up.
She then sent me a brief email stating her love and attention for our kids will always remain 1st.
I intend to respond to let her know that she is free to do as she pleases but their will of course be consequeces to her actions.
SMH!!
Had to get that out. This past week has really dampened my spirits!
