Last weekend was difficult for me. First, I received an e-mail from my ex pretty much saying that everything that was happening to me was my own fault, that I was fabricating every single detail, threat, harassment, etc. that he’s lashed at me for years.

My first response was anger. How could he say these things to me? This was exactly the reason we sought counseling together in the first place. Then I remembered, ‘oh yeah, this is why counseling didn’t work for us.’ I am a very generous person and I am very generous of my time with my children. And so it made me especially upset that he said he didn’t think the children were receiving quality care or time spent with them.

He thinks I walked away from him and our children when “I” turned my back on our marriage. Did I forget to mention that in the divorce papers I received he is asking for EVERYTHING? The children, the house (yeah, the one he didn’t want to stay in) my car, you name it, he wanted it.

In the meantime, he’s telling our children that he will acquire anything their heart desires if they come move in with him and his mom. Guess who will take care of the boys? Sure won’t be ‘daddy dearest.’ I so badly don’t want them to feel the pain that I feel from his abuse and scars that I know I will be burdened with for some time.

I worry about them. They are already complaining of stomach aches and crying over weekend visitation days. It all just sucks. They don’t deserve his wrath.
