Greetings,

First Thank You PP for the words of encouragement. I appreciate it.

I need to vent as my W retained and L and has filed a Petition that I am abusive toy her and the children, I am an alcoholic, and was never involved with my kids. This is all false and I cannot believe she would even lie. I don't get it. Why would she try to withhold my kids from having a relationship with their father?

I have coached my Son's Baseball Team for 3 years going now. I have never ever missed a special occasion or event that involved my kids until this past Halloween since it was her weekend and didn't want me there even though the kids have asked her many times.

I have never cheated on her, I have never lied to her, I have never hit her, I have never lifted a finger on her, and I never called her a foul name. This is why I am blown away.

I drank socially and stopped on 6/29/15.

I am ok that we are separated and respecting that she wanted out. I just want time with my boys. It hurts b/c I love her but I can live w/o us being together. I just want an equal time with kids.

What is in her mind that she wants to hurt me? I'm trying to move forward and make this fair for the boys so they can better cope with the hardship they are living.

How can I be comforting to her so that we can agree to move forward in the best interest of our boys?

I'm sick to my stomach and can't believe her!

Any advice and knowledge is appreciated. Thank You.
