I take exceptional care of my kids. They are as minimally affected by this as I an allow with the mistakes Ive made handling it. But Of course there will be a lasting impact.
Why are they not staying with you? Your wife by your own admission is neglecting them, they are to much for your in-laws yet your wife still has them, or your in-laws are watching them even though neither can handle them or is 4 hours away? Money doesn't equal taking care of them just as FYI.
And if you really believe this has a minimal effect on your kids....that's just...sad. Look how it's affected you, and you are an adult and this isn't your mother basically abandoning you.
Oh, and you are allowed mistakes as husband, that's on you, but mistakes as a father...that only affects your kids. But you won't see it that way anyway.
