[quote=Anonymous]OP, for the sake of you kids, you need to commit to doing the very hard work of undoing all the damage done to your kids by this neglect, and then get to it. It sounds like your husband dropped the ball on the agreement (or assumptions?) you had, but you also have to play a very active role in turning things around. Find a GREAT, experienced, patient, and highly recommended, professional child behavior therapist and work out a budget for having them work with each of your kids one-on-one, as well as with you, along with any group therapy. Then follow the advice at home to a T. Tell their teachers what is happening and ask for frequent reports/communication (some teachers will cooperate, some won't but your goal is to make as much of the interactions in their lives positive and focused on turning things around). Talk to your husband if you can. Try not to blame him and/or see if you can motivate him somehow. This will take years (4?) to undo and set them on the right track but it can be done and it will be worth it.
