X demands full custody because I'm now engaged

[sleeper]

Kids or not, you are prolonging some of this for reasons I can't quite see. I'm sure protecting your kids and what they need are part of it, but is there something else?

She set up appt with this C after DS's comment but didn't inform me (of course she emphatically claims she did). I suspect she's fishing for some reason to file for full custody and she's been filling the kids heads with stuff too. One example was her telling the kids she had told me about the appointments but I didn't attend the first one. When I told DS I didn't know he replied, "Yes you did dad, mom told you."

Yesterday she commented to me in frustration that the C wouldn't meet with me that the two of us, "working this out with a counselor", was the reason for contacting the counselor in the first place. At this point I don't know and don't care what the truth is about her goals concerning the counselor. I started going for my kids. I don't think it will hurt anything to not go (but it might hurt if I didn't).
