I'll choose my kids anyday. This is yet another sign that you have to work on detaching. Part of it is controlling your emotions and reactions to situations. For the record, MWD also recommends taking advantage of family time (not saying you go and ask her to do things as a family but, if invited by others) as it gives the opportunity to show some of your changes. Key here is that you exude confidence, happiness, and acting "as if" while there and not being the miserable negative Nancy that we all can be during this time.
