sounds like you got to put a lot of stuff you wanted on the table. It's up to her now. I do wonder though why you would even consider not giving her access to her children? Is there some reason? If not, would it not be in the best interests of your children to have a strong, loving R with both you and your W? Denying her access (if you even can) is a sure way to make a mom go ballistic and become truly hateful towards you. She needs reassurance that you would "never" do that without good reason. If she comes back to your M for the kids but hates you, it won't work!
She also said she wants to be herself now. Sounds like a lady overwhelmed by her life (not your fault) and somehow sees this as THE solution. What a joke, she's carrying on about how hard her life is now, well, it's gonna get harder! WAW thinking is truly mind boggling. It's better to walk away, turn your life and your families upside down rather than work on it together. All this for a happiness that rarely turns out to be so. Wow! I feel for you Benwa.
