Hi Penny,

I admire you, for you seem like you're really holding it together given the situation with your H and you have a baby on the way!

I too have had issues with parenting and my XHMLcer. My children are older, D9 and D12, but nevertheless....I've had issues and still do from time to time. From my standpoint I've got part time father/disney land dad.

I wanted to say that I also see MLC the same as narcissism! I guess you could say their behavior definately is like it, but how they get there is questionable. I've found that the more I read about narcissism the more I understand the irrationality of MLC and my XH behaviors.

Good luck to you!
