I am currently dealing with an odd situation with my ex-A and her
examples (or lack thereof) she is demonstrating to our kids. Here is
the simple history of events leading up to my dilemma:
A ex-wife and I have been divorced 4 years
(after being scraped off the streets) A ex-wife lived with her father
A ex-wife started a relationship with a male AA "friend"
A ex-wife moved out of father's house and in with male A
A ex-wife had baby with male A
A ex-wife jumped head over heels into male A's family and did
everything with them (with our kids)
A ex-wife broke up with male A
A ex-wife moved into mother's house
A ex-wife started a relationship with a male AA "friend"
A ex-wife has begun to jump head over heels into male A's family and
do everything with them (with our kids)
I have sole legal and physical custody of our 2 kids. I have grown
increasingly agitated of A ex-wife's behavior pattern of not thinking
of our kids first and finding male relationships within AA. I am
going to bring this up as a topic to discuss with her, but wanted to
get feedback from my Al-anon groups and think things through before
doing so. She is likely to think that I am telling her what to do
with her personal life, but my only angle is what the kids are exposed
to. She has repeatedly demonstrated that she cannot take care of
herself, and needs a parent of another male "friend" to do things for
her. HELP please! ;)
Thanks,
Brett
