I never meant to imply they would be better off with
the mother. They are better off with their father. Once
their mother gets her act together then *maybe* they
could consider equal parenting time. But that time
will never come! I met *her* father last night. He
came out and told me *he* didn't divorce him... get
the picture? Dad is selling his home. He is moving.
The boys want nothing to do with their mother, and
the daughter wants to stay with her father.

Ok, I need a clarification here. Are you saying you met your boyfriend's
ex-wife's father? And that he still maintains a positive relationship with
your boyfriend?

After my ex-wife and I split, I had a better relationship with her mother
and brother than she did for about a year and a half. Now, they've all made
amends, but I still get alomg with them just fine.
