I know how you feel, Blues. Whenever my H is around the kids (at least in front of me) he acts so happy and up, it's almost manic. It kind of creeps me out, actually. I wonder if the kids think it's weird. And there have been many situations (many of them involving my H talking about "the Dad Pad") where if I had any mini meatloaves, I would have done one better than throwing them at him and shoved them up his . . . well, you know.

I agree with bug that counseling might be in order for your kiddos, esp. your 15 year old.
