I understand about how this affects you and the kids. It is so hard watching a S who used to be such a huge part of family life act like everyone should just adapt and be happy with ripping a family apart. I had an awful evening with my W about discussing visitation and her taking S8 to her new place where OM and new GF live. Now S8 wants to stay with his mom which I understand, but do not agree with the location. She started taking him over this past weekend without any discussion and cannot see that this could be a problem. So when I voiced my opinion (not good timing last night, but did not yell), she got very upset and defensive and started cussing at me. She said that I was the one hurting the kids by not letting come over to see her. I am tired of everything being my fault -- even if you are not to believe everything that they say. Hang in there we understand how you feel.
