I realized I was taking my anger out on my children probably within hours of my W bringing it to my attention. It was an easy change for me to make once I realized what I was doing. It is amazing the change it has made in my relationship with them. I notice a huge difference and I am so grateful for that. My 13 year old notice that I had been reading ALOT lately. That's kinda her thing. She asked me one night,"hey dad, are you gonna stay up reading tonight?" to which I replied yes. She said," why don't you come in my room and read with me". It meant the world to me. If nothing else, my relationship with my children has improved and they are the most important in all of this. I walked in my W room and she was crying and I asked why. She said, "you have just been so different with the kids". Its a start that she sees that and I hope I can outlast this thing and get her to look at me as a good person again!
