[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"familiar with custody" is what I meant to type.[/quote] That was me, I'm also 11:57. Laws and standards have changed a LOT since the 80s when my mom divorced my mentally ill father. Giving 50 pct custody to a mentally ill man, however medicated, wasn't done in those days, but clearly it is now. And the courts had no issue when she moved us 1000 miles away a year later, which I also understand is not as easy to do now as it was then. OP knows best whether her kids will be more freaked out by daddy working or being sick (I never would have thought "sick=serious, could die," I would have thought "sick=fever, transient," but I was a pretty calm kid). All that I and other PPs are trying to say is that she should consider the emotional impact of the explanations she uses, and the long-term impact of those explanations being dishonest.[/quote]
