Hey T. First of all, I agree, speak with a lawyer. Knowledge is power. Doesnt mean you are giving up. Do not tell your h.

I also agree not to say those things if he asks why you arent in the room. I would also try to be out of the house sometimes. It really is best for you to try to GAL. None of his business what you are doing.

Make sure he cant do anything about the business without your knowledge. Find out your rights regarding it. MLCers are notorious for messing with financials and money. Protect yourself.

You need to be on the same page as him about what you are saying to your kids. You should not point fingers at each other. Keep it simple.

He needs to forge a relationship with them. It is your job not to cause harm to it, but, it is up to him to figure it out.
