Hi Cld
Glad you stuck around.

My ex's mother instinct is in the same place as her empathy, compassion and remorse.
You need to remember. MLCrs distance themselves from the person closest to them. Their spouse. We are enemy number 1, the cause of all their pains and the reason of their unhappiness.
Our girls were very close to their mom. We were a tight 4. Our wedding 4 yrs ago included a special ceremony with our girls. She could not be without them for more than one night.

So I can only assume she can't face them. They are older children, teens. They are wise to her actions. So she feels judge by them as she did with me. Unable to make eye contact.

Most MLCrs are terrible parents while in their crisis. They leave the kids with grandparents, babysitters or just make up sad excuses of why they can't pick their kids up on their weekends.

I believe she will wake up. Soon?? I don't think so. She is still very much a teen and deep in replay.
