A few tips: 1. To the extent possible, include your son in the shopping for the furniture. That way he feels a measure of control over his life during a period that is out of his control. 2. I don't know if you are crafty at all, but if you can make something for him that is huge. I made my son a blanket and he still loves it. 3. If you are able to take him even for a little trip, buy him a souvenir that he likes from the trip and put it on the wall. I got my son a dreamcatcher that we put on th…

At my school it's the chance for the kids to walk their parents through everything they dog that year.

That is what I have decided to switch to. Previously I had helped to excuse her skipping things. Now it's just going to be: "I'm sorry mommy couldn't make it. I'm here to talk about it if you want to."

I was in the same position. My son and I have a rental and now that the ex has gotten a lot of therapy, AA, two days of jail time (DUI), she's ready to actually be a mom again. Leaving may not just be the best for you and your kids, but also for her.

People change over time and post-partum can do permanent damage. I'm guessing you are very different than you were 10 years ago.

From OP: The best summary I've ever heard, which candidly is something that I think many of us have dealt with with our exes, is that she likes everything about being a mother except being a mother. She's always happy to show up if there is something that will reflect on her, but otherwise she has no interest.

I have a similar situation. I try to just be there for my son and let her fail, although candidly I fail sometimes and try to force her to be a better parent. All I can tell you is that it sucks and you have a lot of company.

It can be as cheap as $10 to pick up needles and some yarn. There's lots of good instructions on the internet. I found that I liked loom knitting because I don't need to keep track of stitches the same way. That costs about $20 to $30 to set up.

Not really. I also wound up with a nice scarf.

You may want to look at a 5-5-2-2 schedule. Effectively what that does is one of you gets Mondays and tuesdays, the other gets Wednesdays and thursdays, and you alternate weekends. That way you don't spend an entire week away from your kids at any point.

OP here. I have to thank everyone and marvel on the fact that we have found something on the Internet that everyone agrees on. Frankly, I don't know that I would have been "strong" enough to let my son suffer even if it was for the greater good, but it really seems like it would hurt him with no long-term gain for him anyway. I appreciate it and hope to help others in the forum at some point too.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
