Thanks for all your kind words of support. It is both sad and exciting. I have 4 kids, S24,D21,D18,D16 The girls, except D18, seem to be either very angry or very quiet. None of the kids are surprised at this development. I do hope the bitterness and anger will stay out of the special relationship that we have with the kids. I'm sure it is easy to ask them to "pick sides". That can't be a good thing to do. Let the healing begin!! I have not seen a lawyer, as all I wanted was a seperation to sort out my feelings. She may see a lawyer and start the process. Time will tell. I'm ready either way. I'm looking in the library section for good books to understand the kids needs. I appreciate your input. CD
