Some clarifications:

We have a parenting schedule inside the house so we both take different days with the kids

My conversation with the kids happened while I was in town. He seems to have heard about it while I was out of town.

I accept that I could have just let it go as other posters mentioned. I think talking to the kids about it is a grey area and assume it would be fine in a healthy relationship. The kids were not upset, they were like fine we’ll watch X show with him which is what he has been watching with them all along, I said that’s a great show and end of talk.

I would have been fine to talk to him about this, and if I was in the wrong or hurt him in some way, apologize. I do not think it’s ok for him to lash out at me when triggered.

We separated for six months recently. During the separation he was very nasty to me. I mentioned taking the kids to a museum because it was raining one day on spring break and my friend had said it was nice. He also had wanted to take the kids to this museum. He told me “if you take the kids there and ask your friend about it, I will text both your friend and her husband and tell them we are getting a divorce.” That’s the kind of jerk behavior he thinks is OK.

Yes there is likely a mental health issue here, but no he hasn’t gotten evaluated.[/quote]

You have a “parenting schedule”, are terrible communicators, and you clearly feel victimized by him… and you are still married, why??[/quote]

Two young kids with special needs.[/quote]

Do you actually feel like this situation is better for them?  Or you?  Or him?  He sounds like he can handle them alone just fine.  Doesn’t seem like being married is providing anyone with extra support. [/quote]

I think it’s better for them for the time being. One is pretty young and has a tough time sleeping in new places and with new routines. Think the kind of kid who loves his home and bed, who acts out if there’s a substitute teacher, etc. Moving between houses would be rough at this age. Maybe it will change in a couple years.[/quote]
