Being totally available to the kids as the stable wise adult parent will help them
To be honest I don't see my kids too scarred from their MLC Dad
I made the shift at some point, off of Him to my kids being there for them I was cordial and kind to XH ..He visited when he wanted at first rules came later
Not badmouthing Xh..mostly reasurring kids a lot --it will be ok and it was nothing to do with them Dad was going through something and we had to let him
especially my pre teen who needed more at that time of BD
Once the MLCer moves out, this becomes easier
their negative energy no longer invades the home
hang in there
