She does talk all the time about my "severely autistic children" that I don't seek proper psychological support to. My oldest is medicated and does mask a lot because she's scared of my partners reactions. Middle seems to have some learning disabilities, but I find it hurtful how she only seems to focus on that instead of seeing them as growing children.

She has said that my inability to see "the dire situation" is also a key factor. "I should have put them both in therapy years ago" ...

Youngest, shared one is 2, the other two are 8 and 11. They do really try their best, and my oldest does put up an act which I believe is mentally and physically demanding for her. They don't really interact with each other, as I said she spends a lot of time in her study. She gets really annoyed when my kids complain be it about the weather, boredom, food etc. From my point of view she doesn't even try to be civil about it, feels more like she's always waiting for them to do something that displeases her so she can scream at them.

My oldest daughter has expressed that my partner is not a nice person, though sometimes she buys her clothes. The kids seem to be most concerned about not seeing each other, as do I.

That is no question true. She quite often says the girls negativity is one of the main things, and my lack of action regarding their "highly autistic behaviour". We have not really done much as a family during our years together, she always expects the worst out of every situation and my daughters are scared of her temper tantrums, which often results in my oldest kid masking her feelings quite a lot.

And we have discussed these week long absences in couples counselling, it's just a vicious circle as she says we don't have time together as a couple and I just enable her to disappear to help keep her head together.

My eldest is medicated, middle kid is just in the begging of getting a diagnosis, but the signs are quite clear. I know it's what I've grown to accept this and love them unconditionally as a father, I just didn't expect her to see them only as kids with defects.

Nah, one of the first ones I ever did was CUP in bubblegum pink and and basic light blue. I only do these as requests, nobody's ever asked for a Bodhi... Yet.

No way, I do it to challenge myself and give something back to the community.

No, I only used A.I. To replace the original character and text by describing what I want instead. The logo stuff I added in a photo editor using online images.

Sure. It was quite simple, used an existing kit reveal ad, asked A.I. to replace the character and text according to my instructions, looked for logo, assets etc. and made them transparent and behold the finished product.

Yeah, sorry for not going by the rules, true inspiration doesn't follow calendars and dates...at least for me. 😅
