Wow, those words hit me like a ton of bricks. I mean, I can already see it progressing, but I don't want to believe it. Here's the hard thing, which I sure lots of you have dealt with. If at some point I decide it is in our best interest to leave, how do I convince my young son that I am not the bad guy without saying his dad is the bad guy. I feel like he will forever blame me for leaving. I guess this is what I need a counselor for.
