Well, it has been about 12 hours since WH announced to the kids he was moving out. The girls are of course, very torn up. He said that he knows the first few days will be rough and to have them call as often as they need. I would think that if every conversation with the kids becomes a guilt inducing one, he will pull further away.
I think he should have to sit here and dry every tear. Every tear fills me with rage and the desire to attack. I am not speaking badly of their father, I have just said that daddy thinks he will be happier away from mommy. I love daddy and I want him to be happy, so I am giving him this chance to see. That's probably a pretty lame thing to say, but I can't think of anything that will make sense to them.
