Her friends are very much supporting her and believing what she is saying, and adding to it.

Except one, who told me she quit meeting with my wife and her new friends because she found her new friendships and relationships too toxic. This woman said, it was all bizarre to see a bunch of middle aged mothers talking and acting like they were and she wanted no part of it. She also told me one of the ladies has had a lot of negative things to say about me for over a year and my wife has never stopped her.

My youngest saw her texts to her new work colleagues, telling them she needed support to transition out of the house because of all she was going through.

Me and the kids asked her to leave for at least a few weeks. She refused. Her name is on the mortgage as well, so she is staying.

Yes, the weekend with the kids was good and Sunday and today I'm physically sick. My youngest is home from school again because their stomach is wrecked and can't leave the bathroom.

I'm going to have to investigate what it will take to escalate this and have her out of the house for the school year so that youngest will be successful.. That will require the youngest to request this, and I am worried about it appearing like I am pressuring them to do this.
