For what it may be worth Ivy....
My children's dad suffered from PTSD and so was always on the lookout for "Charlie". When I said I had had enough of him avoiding me and the kids his only question was, what about the kids?
I replied that between the two of us they will be fine; it was up to him to stay in touch with them. I told the children that it wasn't their fault it was just that even though we were very fond of each other, we just couldn't live under the same roof.
Need I tell you. The kids grew up just fine and weekends with daddy were something they looked forward to as he would make time to spend time with them....little buggers...they got up to all sorts of mischief with daddy. They miss him terribly but they are ok.
Oh better qualify that ....daddy died in 2006.
