GAL and being scarce are important. My only concern is how she acts towards the children when she has them . Not that you should walk on egg shells or bend to every request to take them but if she’s not able to control her anger around them . Maybe it’s good you increase the time with them .
My H fought so hard to have the children every weekend . I was very against it . I did the opposite and said ok go ahead . Wished him well and made sure to GAL when I didn’t have children or GAL with them .After a few weeks he realized he was running himself into the ground . I didn’t even have to ask for time with them . He just eventually crashed . When he saw the time I was spending with them was more quality and simple rather than quantity it made him think . He’s able to talk some about it now that he moved home .
I was a stay at home mom for many years . I do see the side of just wanting some down time or just breaking free . If I’m being honest you sometimes loose who you are and are just something for everyone . A mom , a wife , a daughter, a cook , a laundry machine but forget who you are . I had good outlets . Great friends . I will say now looking back my H was not supportive enough while I was home and years later resentment built up in me . I’m a newbie here . I think you are doing good .
