Problem is... I have tried the MC approach. She flat out refuses to go. She has said "the day I go to a marriage counselor is the day our marriage is over."



Keep after this, although not in a nagging way, just keep up the suggestion. I felt the same way as your wife regarding MC. I'm now on my second. I would also seriously consider seeing a lawyer if she is suggesting that she will take the kids out of state.

Gone the carvings and those who left their mark.
Gone the kings and queens, now only the rats hold sway.
