Thank you BOTH!
And I will watch and listen carefully to the suggested video!
This is very timely. This weekend my wife called looking for our daughter, citing that I am supposed to, by the court order, foster relationships between her and the kids.
My response was; I have been, then don't feel safe, and it unsettles them to be pushed in that way.
This of course spun off into it all being my fault; I caused ALL the issues between her and the kids. I said, The oldest wants to charge you with abuse and neglect. He's a young man and already a Master Corporal, and he hired his own lawyer.
"NO. You did this. You created it. Everything he is saying is baseless and you put it in his mind. NO."
When I'm confronted with someone who is so utterly absolutely certain about something, I question myself. So, I've spent the last 48 hours examining all my memories and trying to decide if I'm crazy.
I can't imagine a scenario where someone could convince the kids that I'm a neglectful parent, or abusive in my words and actions. So.... I'm not sure how she thinks I could have created that in them towards her.
Thank you.
