[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 80187, member: 1991"] What reason does he give for needing a separate flat? Is he maybe using difficult child as an excuse to move out? Is there any way you could find some space in your home which is minimal distraction, where husband could spend this time with difficult child instead of renting a flat for the purpose? Think of it - two lots of housekeeping, two lots of meals cooking, two lots of keys, travelling back and forth - not to mention the disruption for difficult child, always wondering if the separation is because of him (which seems to be what husband is saying at the moment). I'd be maybe sitting down with husband and drawing up a PMI on a sheet of paper. (PMI = Plus, Minus, Interesting - you list these things relevant to this idea in the various columns. Do two pages - one to stay, one to go. Both you and husband contribute to the list and discuss it as calmly as possible.) Marg [/QUOTE]
