[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They can't fix her and you can't fix her. You need to accept that. You pushing them to try things is probably just making things worse. You are divorced and that means you can't really help very much. I'm sure you mean well, but if this is coming from a place of divorce guilt, maybe you need therapy for yourself. You can get divorced but they can't-- distance and estrangement is their only real option. Divorce means the kids have to deal with things mostly on their own and you need to accept it.[/quote] Yes, I'm sure therapy would be helpful for me as well, although I don't feel any guilt about the divorce. I tried everything I could to save my marriage, but ultimately it takes two people to want a marriage to work, and that wasn't the case in my situation. [/quote]
