Another thing that Leni said is, part of DB'ing is doing what works. It sounds like your H started to rethink his decision and come around more when the kids were out of his life more. He saw more value in his family.
I really am not reading what she said incorrectly. I wrote down a lot of what she said word for word. And she did state that it was emotional abuse to a child. She said she works with children all the time and this is psychosematic... meaning, it will start to show in their behavior.
