Hi,

I've been reading a book about custody cases. The book says that the worst way to settle them is to let the lawyers drag them through the courts.

I'm sure that is true, but we can't seem to come up with any agreement.




I'd like to reply and be sesitive to and validate her feelings, but I don't want her to get the impression that I'm giving away the store. I'd like to reply:

That's true, I agree. I'd like to try to come to an agreement to spare all of us all that's involved in going through this.

I really do want to spare DD's this grief. Right now, I feel like I stink at validating WAW's feelings.

Any comments or criticisims are welcome.
