Help - Setting Boundaries, WW in EA - Thread #3

Doodler

She is going for aggression, threats, manipulation, disrespect.

She is now saying she will take back the MBR again, move my stuff out when I am at work, put locks on the door. She won't have me attack her - Says I would have to attack her to get in.

She is continuing to talk about S in front of D5, and even manipulating using D5. When I said D5 couldn't watch videos on her tablet, as it was bed time, come back a minute later to find W has given her her phone, and then I have the drama when I take it off her. W the acts the good guy, cuddling D5. She was using the fact that I phoned one of my oldest friends tonight, saying I was lying and using him for financial advice. Trying to talk about S and custody arrangements, and who gets the house and how my only interest is money... followed by her saying I would have to keep her in the manner to which she is accustomed - for the kids benefit :-/

Then she said that she would talk to her 'friend'. Talk to him about her grandmother's funeral (as I hadn't asked). Bearing in mind that when I asked how it was, that was what kicked off the massive rage and attempted physical assault earlier. This was in front of D5, so D5 asks who her friend is. She tells her he lives a long way away, and when D5 asks, tells her his name. All the while looking at me and gloating, sneering. I left the room.

Then she gets her weed, which she was supposed to be giving up, and goes out back to smoke.

Not sure I can use those tactics against her... All I can do is stand up to her and let her know she won't get it all her own way. I'm crying inside for my poor kids.
