So, I guess your going to pursue D? A couple things. Spend a lot of time thinking about your kids. You're new here and I can tell you the first thing I thought was I was going for full custody. Wife just up and abandoned us. Then as I calmed down I realized that wasn't what was best for them. So I started to lighten up. Then I heard a story from a guy at work that ended up getting a restraining order on his wife for him, but the judge wouldn't grant him custody. Then he got an order between his wife and their one kid. Judge gave temporary custody, but only till wife could go through AA and rehab. The short of it is custody battles are hard, ugly, expensive and unfair. We've all been wronged to a degree that is unfathomable, but need our heads to clear from our fog to truly figure out what's best for our kids.
Get the other stuff straight, but remember it's just that....stuff and money....your kids need you right now. Make them your priority.
Best of luck for calmer waters.
