Judy - it sounds like you still have that good man in there somewhere. When I read how your H is being honest with his answers and how he talks about recognizing that his kids have lost respect for him( you of course are spot on regarding him having to earn back the respect) - i think that shows that he has regret and he is willing to try . I know Retrouville will be a great experience for the two of you and I can't wait to hear about it.
