She approached me about seeing a mediator next week. I told her that I'm open to the thought of mediation, but will not do so before talking to an attorney. She took this as a threat and ended what to that point was a very civil conversation.
I'm not sure you had to tell her you were discussing with an attorney first. You should, but she didn't really need to know. Of course she took that as a threat.

That's bull. My W said something very similar to me when I called OM's W and things got a bit ugly. It's an attempt on her part to hurt you where she knows you are vunerable....don't let her.
I wouldn't worry about what she thinks as much as I would think about what kind of man and father you want to be. If you didn't fight for your kids, would she respect you? Would you respect yourself? Would your kids understand?
Hang in there...this is tough stuff, and the WAS will say some nasty stuff to try to shake you. Stick to your guns, show your kids how a good man deals with tough situations.
