Thank you - I took your advice and spoke to her. She was absolutely rude to me but I feel better having taken the high road. In fact, I think she got even angrier with me that even dared to speak to her knowing full well that she is mad at me. The alien keeps her appearance........

I have read about parents walking away from the family during a MLC. My W seems less interesting is parenting duties these days. That is a big one for me to deal with. My oldest D-12 and my wife always but heads but it seems like its gotten worse. Is it a common for a MLC mom who was an awesome mom to be angry towards their kids too, seem resentful over having to do mom things and maybe wanting a break? That one is hard for to see.
