Parents: help me parenting while separated (2)

[Ripe]

Ancaire, Sotto.
Just passing by my thread means a lot to me, with or without any marriage-saving advice.

And sometimes I also feel like telling STBXW "I told you so".
Around one month ago I mentioned to STBXW the known consequences of divorce on kids.
She replied: "Those are just statistics on paper. Reality is always different."
Well, now I can say my kids are becoming part of the statistics.
And do you want to know what she wrote me the following day?
She said she felt sorry for the reactions of S7 towards me, which were a mirror of S9 reactions towards her. And then she wrote: "How mysterious and interesting is human nature."
Where is the mystery and surprise here?
And I thing my kids would gladly pass this interesting human experience.
Be as it may, I came to the conclusion that I would not want my M just because of the kids. Once I thought to stick to it just because of the kids sake, but now I am no longer sure.

I will keep working on my kids. And now I have a new and exciting goal: to practice mindfulness with them.
I started meditating (still struggling) last May.
And now the Happiness Course I am taking mentioned the numerous advantages of Mindfulness. One chapter is dedicated to mindfulness in schools. I am just waiting for Tuesday, when I have them with me.
