Dh works away, he has been away for 3 weeks, due home in under 2 weeks and planning to officially split once he is home. He knows it's on the cards, we haven't spoken since he went away, he has phoned the kids 3 times and that's it.
Without going into it all, reason for split is his attitude towards the Dc since they were born (now 5 + 3), always seemed like they were an inconvenience, never spent ant time with them and now they never seem to measure up, full of criticism towards them, never encouraging etc. I've had enough of it all bow, feel like I'm constantly trying to shield them from him.
Anyway since he went away this trip, my Ds been missing Dh loads, upset at bedtime, can't wait for him to come home and has this image of a dad that plays lego lots and spends lots of quality time with him. He sat and built a lego truck one morning in the 6 weeks he was at home because Ds had asked and asked.
Obviously Ds doesn't know that we are going to be separating but it's almost like he has a sixth sense about it?? And its making me feel awful about breaking the family up...
