Hi Thumpered, it sounds like you are doing a great job of doing your 180's and taking care of yourself. It is great that you and your daughter are developing a closer bond, that is wonderful! To me you are handling the children well with regards to talking about what is going on between you and your W. Just do as you are doing, being available to them, to spend lots of time with them and let them know that you are there for them no matter what, and will always be. And let them know that they can always ask you any questions, and that they can talk to you about whatever is bothering them. Things in their life are changing, so just remain a constant that they can count on.
