[quote=Anonymous]I wish my kids could eat at home PP, that is no longer in my control.

Other PP, he has been treated/undertreated for depression and ADD for years. He may have PTSD symptoms according to one doc, another said he was a narcissist. It's not a new, small problem that is easily fixed or that he has motivation to fix, alas. He uses the kids to make himself feel happy so there is a real tension with parenting, as in, he doesn't do it. No matter how egregious or dangerous their behavior, he downplays, minimizes and tries to buy them into a state of making him feel happy, and it has gotten worse. That is the main driver of the divorce. So I'm not dealing with someone who was ever a great parent or according to the psych, someone who might actually be able to understand that what they need is different from what he wants. People with personality disorders can't always make that distinction.

Last night was a "healthy dinner" at Subway, chocolate milk and a big bag of chips for each kid. They had already eaten before they left. Oye. [/quote]
