[QUOTE="DDD, post: 299189, member: 35"] Do Not Read This If You Need Positive Ideas. I think it's over. Done. No hope of unified and loving parenting. Your son, in my humble opinion, needs to be seeing a professional to help him prepare for the end of his marriage and the subsequent separation. If he does not do that prep work, he is apt to behave in such a way that his wife can note his unusual behaviors as evidence that he should not be given unsupervised visitation, etc. Furthermore, in my jaded thinking, I would bet more than a nickle that she has a replacement spouse in mind. If your son is on the best medications available, has the best therapist available and has a family ready to support him he's in the strongest position he can be in. Economically it might be a good idea for him to review his assets and have an attorney "on call" so she can not overwhelm him into making poor choices due to his anxious state. My husband and I know what it is like to be left out of grandparenting due to no fault. It is difficult. As you say, however, often there are other children who will bring you that joy. Sending hugs.
