It doesn't sound like your ex has anything to offer your children except a warning about the consequences of our decisions, and how not to live your life. He certainly doesn't seem to realise that other people aren't just side characters in his story, so I'd expect him to be looking for sympathy and even practical support from them (e.g. "woe is me, I don't know what I'm going to do, I've lost everything, I can't keep the dog...") Personally I'd discourage anyone from spending time with him. I know it's easy to say this as an uninvolved person. I hope your children can understand that he's not who you all thought he was.
