Hi All Ineed some advice. WAS has indicated she is moving out this weekend, she plans to take the children to new house tomorrow and then move on Saturday. she wasn't a children to go with her on Saturday night, her reasoning is so that they do not feel their mother is abandoning them. I do not agree with her on this, of course because she is breaking up their family unit and if they leave then what are the children going to think about Dad being left behind?

there is no point having an argument, however I do want to make my point to her that this move might seem better for her but is not taking into account my position or indeed what the children want and feel. As a Dad my focus is on staying close to my children, understanding them and letting them know everything is OK.

WAS has not told them she is going yet, she wants to take them to the house first so they do not worry about it, again I think this is flawed logic but she is entitled to her views and I will remain with attention on the children, I am thinking once she has spoken with them and shown I will talk to them both and just let them know I love them and am always here for them.

I feel I am working well on being detached but still need to draw the line of detachment and still voicing my position
