Just a quick update… I did it, and while it was heartbreaking it was not as bad as I feared. The thing with kids is that they usually never react the way you expect them to for anything. So you build yourself up for one reaction and then you get another and it’s a bit anticlimactic at times.
I’m in an odd place with emotions, but primarily I feel relief that it’s over and not a secret. I will blog about it later, I just wanted to let you know I am OK for now.
Thank you to everyone who reads me, and for your likes and kind words. It means a lot that people care and find something of interest to them in what I write.

You are incredibly strong. I know you must inspire and help a lot of folks in similar situations. I’m sorry for your situation, but you are doing what is best for all, rather than pretend and live in a tension-filled, unhappy home. It’s how I grew up and I hated the way my dad treated my mom. Trust me, kids feel the unhappiness. It stuck with me for years. Stay strong and thank you for being an inspiration to many.
