Leaving may be a good idea, but accelerates a discussion of legal issues involving the kids--which can increase tension and confrontation. I have discussed W moving out, but she has defined her life as "ultimate" life-setter for kids--so moving out is a real non-starter for her.



I understand this so much. I too had the hardest time deciding to leave vs. staying, in regards to the kids. But what I did in no way should reflect on what you should do.

Merrick, I will say it sounds as if you do have a plan, and that is good. We all worry about your well being.

And like I said on my thread, I will make it a point to get your email from Betsey.
