Hi Irish,

I just caught up on your thread. Wow, what a ride... I'll chime in with my 2 cents.

Point 1

And my 2 cents might be a bit at odds with the thoughts of others. Your daughters are not babies or toddlers and IMO you might be a bit over protective with them. I get it that you are a papa bear and you want to shield them from each and every harm in the world.

IMO they are old enough to decide for themselves if they want to have any contact with their mother. It is very likely they do not.

Point 2

To me you sounded a bit judgemental in your conversations with your W, but on the other hand to me she came off like an absolute basket case.

IMO you she still has ways to push your buttons, but with an occasional slip up, you are acing your replies.

I too think that you should step back a bit and let her cook, she is not done yet.

Cheers, V
