[quote=Anonymous]I can only hope, PP. Ex's girlfriend seems to really scapegoat one of the children and ex does nothing to stop it, there is no attempt to form a bond, just praise for one and constant criticism of the other (who is very young and who is very upset by it). Ex is disengaged and just pushes them to perform, but only in the ways he is interested in. Both lie frequently and the kids find that very confusing. They say that they never know what to believe or what will happen next. Her kids are treated very differently by both their mom and exDH, that is also painful to them.

If anyone has particular local therapists or types of therapists to recommend, I would welcome that. Hope that will come in the next few months despite ex's attempts to delay the legal process.

Thanks for the info on your feelings about your mom. I hate not being able to protect them more but having that be 100% of our lives was a nightmare too. He put up a very good facade and when he was done it was like he became a different person. One child noted that he lied a lot when only about 3, you can't live with people you can't trust.
