[QUOTE="HMBgal, post: 682545, member: 13260"] My daughter left this man five years ago, when my grandlittles were 2 and 4 years old. They were pretty unhappy from the get-go, and the honeymoon period didn't last long. He has the same mental health problems that my grandson has. Genetics are so powerful. And my ex-husband had the same mental health issues that his father had. At the time my daughter separated from her husband, I would say it was somewhat amicable and they wanted to co-parent. But time passed, he quickly remarried a woman with three other children by three other men, none of whom she married. She's a very strange, nasty person, and she promptly got pregnant again so they now have six children between them, which includes my two grandkids. And as my daughter has asserted her rights and the new wife has asserted herself, and as my grandson's mental illness/challenges have become more severe, the ex has gotten more and more hostile. And my ex-son-in-law is and always has been a difficult person. Not controlling, just miserable, unable to be happy and feel joy and very, very anxious. We always felt like we were walking on eggshells so we wouldn't upset him. As for remarrying, my husband and I took a huge leap of faith that I'm not sure I would ever be brave enough to take again. But, I was young (30 with three kids) and thankfully, it worked out. My daughter, on the other hand, never wants to marry again. She's done with the whole institution, although she wants a partner. And she hasn't found anyone yet that can put up with grandson, so there's that. [/QUOTE]
