I know what you mean about seeing pain in your children's eyes. At one point WH left the house and did not say when he would return. My DD6 asked when daddy was coming home and I answered that I wasn't sure. She said, "I think I need to cry now." I was gutted and simultaneously enraged that my WH could be so unbelievably selfish.
Ugh. So sorry, PsySara. I'm dealing with the same thing. This weekend the kids had a meltdown and she just acted like, well, it was an inconvenience that they wanted to stay with me. Sometimes I wish I could just slap the sh*t out of her and say look at what you are doing to them.
There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
