I'm in the middle of a fairly amicable divorce and for the children's sake I'm hoping to keep it that way but my God it's hard.
The dcs just had a weekend with him and I'm fearful this is the way things are going to be now. I get the day to day drudge, he won't can't have them in the week, and they come back to me, invariably late, tired and grumpy. I get all the bad behaviour, sulking, stropping, attitude. He gets them all excited and happy for a weekend with their dad. I should be happy for them as they didn't get anytime with him before but at risk of sounding bitter it's so difficult! I had to bite my tongue so hard this morning when my eldest stropped off with attitude after I asked her to do something.
Does all this get easier and how do you deal with it? Feeling so this morning.
