Yes, definately. Im no lawyer, but I can pick what defamation isn't.
It's certainly what he needed to hear.
And while I was at work today he sat them down and told them there was two sides to every story (true, of course). Eldest ask whether he and I would be getting a divorce, and he said yes, thats a possibility.
Nice for him to have discussed it with me first.
AH has taken my words which is that our difficulties have caused him to be distant from his children, and turned that into an excuse.
And so now eldest has decided he will live half time with me and half time with him, and that everything that dad has done to hurt him is forgiven as there are two sides to every story. Last week, eldest talked about getting away from dad the moment he finished school.
And dad comes home with new electronic gear for them.
Meanwhile i can hardly stand up.
