Hi MLeigh, that is disappointing and I'm sorry he was a no show. Perhaps without a reminder, he was a little foggy on remembering the appointment? I'm not trying to defend him, just thinking about my own experience with my H...

Hopefully you guys will be able to coparent constructively without that input. But if that becomes challenging, maybe you could revisit this again? I do wonder whether he might have felt pretty vulnerable about being in the counselling situation. And rather than be assertive about it, he has just demurred from coming, due to commitments?

Anyways, I would just accept that it seems not to be an option for now and be willing to participate in future if he suggests you guys revisit it.

Take care xx
