Advantages: Rise above all the mind games and keep your children as your prority

Disadvantages: Stress and hurt with your kids stuck in the middle of a war they did not create

I would like to put a different side across to this subject. I am married to a divourcee. I met my husband when he had a 3 year old girl and a 6 year old boy. His marriage had already ended, but it was a messy end, and unfortunately the kids were suffering. I think that in an adult world it is so important to put your own views aside and concentrate on what is best for your children. After all they are the ones that you would do anything to protect, right? Unfortunately it hasnt worked that way for my husband. His ex wife has caused unlimited problems for us over the years, but instead of keeping it away from the children, she has used them in her mind games and had no hesitation in constantly slagging him off to his own children even after 6 years!! This really upsets them. We try not to rise to it, and when the kids come and stay with us every weekend, we try to create a stress free environment, but it is very hard. It is so important to put your children first and bite your tongue to save their pain.

Summary: Divorce is hurtful for the fathers too. My views on my experiences with my husbands ex wife's ways
