Hi WH, You know I see in my W that now that she has left, she pays very little attention to our oldest D who just turned 19 (She just grad from HS in June). It's like since she is over 18, she has no responsibility for helping her pay for college, get her a car so she can get a job, etc. The house she rented only has 2 bedrooms so if she stays with her mom she will have to share a room with her 14 year old sister (at least if her sister is there. So far she hasn't been there but one night)! The house even had 3 bedrooms but she turned one into her "office" which she doesn't really need. She also is wanting to send our D14 to public school for the first time as she doesn't want to pay for it or be bothered by having to pick her up and drop her off every day. She'd rather have a school bus do it! This from the woman who said we had to sacrifice to put the kids in private school for the last 14 years!
She also was so concerned that we share custody with D14. Now that she has moved, in the last 3 weeks my D has spent a total of 2 nights there (one was just last night). And today she is dropping her off at her grandmothers to stay with her! I really think the only reason she wants joint custody is because of the stigma of a mother not having custody and that she would have to pay CS as well.
And last but not least, just like J, my W is now ALWAYS so sick. It's like they are so sure that they are going to die half the time. I swear it boggles my mind how similar the MLC S's act! Hang in there. I know how hard it is to stay calm and just keep our mouths shut but better to let them just act like the idiots they seem to have become! You are not alone!
