I think you are progressing nicely RT. Told you I saw anger, and I still do. Doesn't mean you have to be angry at her. Do you see that now?
I totally relate to the part about p*ssing on her when she's down. I was that way for a while as well. Same with OM. Honestly though, I eventually got to a place where I realized it (you're faster than me) and figured out I only wanted that as revenge. I really don't want revenge because of who I am and have always been. Revenge is not mine and not my place. Don't need nor want it.
I think you said some powerful things to the kids that will help them. I applaud that.
As for not wanting to look at your W? I get that too. I had no desire to see her for a very long time. Eventually, I got to a place where I really don't care either way. I do know that I cannot have a conversation with her (tried many times). It's like talking to a Chinese person - they aren't going to understand my English no matter what I say.
Keep feeling. Keep working on it. You are doing great in that regard....
