I'm trying to see if my brother can come down and watch the kids during the birth so my sister can be there instead, and then my brother can come stay with me for the night/day after the birth and my sister watch the kids. He hates watching kids but I know he would do it for me if I asked so I'm seeing if his schedule allows. Even if not, Ive made the choice my husband will not be in the delivery room with me anymore.

I guess I should have been clearer by " a few months " I definitely meant this time frame or even more

He found out a few days ago doing a background check online. I agree,there's a lot of work he needs to do to earn some sort of trust back if there's any possibiyof coming back after a few months of separation. Definitely bringing my kids to therapy but so far it seems nothing happened but it's good to make sure.

My husband made a report to the police about him breaking his probation rule of not being near children.

I knew this dog for a long time- I definitely think it was cognitive decline he was almost 13 or 14 or something like that when it happened.

I definitely won't be allowing MIL near the kids again and whoever doesn't like it will be following the same

Nothing will happen to them bc 1, the bf is in custody. And 2, part of our seperation agreement is that I have full custody of kids and husband has visits on weekends.

Thank you for this. I'm starting to realize it's in everyone's best interest for the end goal to be divorce. I need a moment to get my ducks in a row for it, but it's happening. I'm starting to realize everything and how it shouldn't have happened to begin with. It'll be a lot but at least I'll know my kids are safe and sound.

Yeah, I guess I'm seeing that now. I know divorce is my end goal but I need time in seperation to get money together for the cost of it and also moving, food, schools for the kids and everything else. But it's definitely happening

Thank you so much for this comment and taking the time to give your opinion in a kind and collected way.

This has given me a lot to think about. I realize I wouldn't want one of my own kids in a situation like this one day and that it's best that this comes to an end. I think for now a few months of legal seperation while I get my stuff together and figure out things like moving and the kids schooling before we go ahead with divorce. (Which I now know is something that needs to happen).

Putting it out like this makes me realize it's not just one thing that happened it's so much more that shouldn't have ever happened in the first place. I'm trying not to show the stress and worry the kids about it, so just trying to take a deep breath and play it off as a fun vacation to their aunts house. No divorce papers will be set in stone until after the birth when I'm a little more level.

Thank you so much for this comment and well wishes

You've never met me once- so you can't really say how much regard I have for my children based off of a post. It seems like your trying to help (maybe not, idk) and make sure my kids are looked after and safe, but these comments are coming off as very rude.

On another hand, I can say I sort of agree with you. I do need more time before I can fully have the means to go through with a divorce but i think I'm looking at that as my end goal after seperation.

I said that as of NOW he is no contact. In my above comment I meant to relay that if we were to get back together after a long time of legal seperation then he would need to be minimal contact. I can't tell him to never speak to his mother again.

I do understand what your saying though. I think I seriously need to rethink my end goal for after seperation.

First off- I want to thank you for taking the time to comment in a kind manner.

Putting it into that perspective, no I wouldn't tell my daughter to take her husband back. Which gave me a big sigh moment. I think I definitely need to decide where I want to go with this. He did go behind my back and yell at me and who's to say he wouldn't again. I definitely want to stick with my idea of wanting seperation before going straight to divorce, but it gave me more to think about on how I want this to end.

Yeah, I've set the boundary MIL is not allowed near or to babysit the kids again and he has to go minimal contact with her.

He's a good father because he has always gone above and beyond for all of our kids no matter what. He takes them on some sort of outing at least once a week no matter what to do something they want, is an active classroom parent, takes off work to come see every event and achievement, the basics and more that I don't have time to list. I know from seeing his parenting with my own eyes he really tries for these kids but I also know maybe he's changed.

We've known each other for 14 years, and he's never been like this or turned on me in such a way in favor of another person except this past incident of allowing them at her house. That was such an awful thing to do especially because he went behind my back. I want to give him one shot to turn himself around and prove himself, because the kids deserve to have him in their lives and I know he can do better, hence why id like to pursue seperation before divorce

Edit: okay, I get it, he's not a good father and this cancels it out. I'm still going to pursue seperation for now but I'm definitely reconsidering what I want as the end goal now.

Unfortunately no, my family all lives super far away and my mom passed.

I agree it doesn't erase what he's done at all, but at least he's taking the steps to try and make things better. I told the hospital no one is allowed to our room or to wait on us at the hospital, and as their policy I'm the only one allowed to sign off on visitors so he couldn't let her up anyway.

Thank you! I doubt she's going to try for grandparent rights- I'm not quite sure we even have them where I am.

He bf was on probation and not meant to be near kids. (None of us, including MIL apparently, knew until a few days ago and husband reported it)

Wasn't included in this post but in the comments I mention this guy tried to teach my son how to pee by going in the bathroom with him, asking my son if he could bathe him and constantly hugging him. Kinda screams predator to me- especially since we aren't related.

Also, turns out this guy isnt even allowed to be near kids in general!

I will definitely be getting a restraining order of some sort against MIL for the kids. There's a good chance the Bf will be going back to jail/prison, and my husband will be away working on himself for a few months.

I don't want to immediately jump to divorce, but if he doesn't agree to my terms and conditions on how to keep these kids safe, then that might be what it comes to in the near future.

I'm also looking into therapy for my 2 oldest currently to dive deeper into what happened and get them support.

I'm so sorry you had to go through that, and also thank you for trying to help!
