Dear June,
My wife and I find ourselves in a very stressful and painful situation involving my ex-wife and her parenting style. She barely participates in their lives, emotionally, spiritually, or economically and yet during her self-imposed limited time with them, she pushes her personal/societal philosophies on our small children. The result of her actions is two confused and emotionally shaken young children. I have continued to share legal custody with her because I would never dream of keeping the children from their mom or her from them. I have residential custody; however, what she is continually exposing them to is making me reconsider the legal situation.
