I was the one that wanted counseling this time around. I was surprised she agreed to it.
But yes, as a newly single dad, I am doing everything I can to make things easy on the kids. I don't say anything about their mom with them in earshot, whether it's to them or just with them around...the kids don't need to hear anything like that anyway. There's actually a mention in the dissolution decree that neither us nor others may make disparaging remarks about the other to the kids, or with the kids around. Kids are echo boxes, so if they hear something they shouldn't, it'll come out.
I have no desire for anyone else. And I don't bug her about it. I'm getting myself in order, because if there IS a fix down the road, it starts with me fixing me and her eventually fixing her.
