The thing is: if I were on a "full, all out war" nuclear war footing with AW, I'd have filed for divorce and sought a Motion Pendente Lite (i.e., an order in effect while the divorce proceeds through the court), asked for child support, etc.

And while *I* know those things (its my profession) - that is, I know I could have done a lot more and made it worse for her; she likely does not know that.

The step I took - a Child Protective Order - while not pleasant, it was still the smallest legal move I could take to attain my objective (protect our child).

Oh well.
