Well my H & I talk about having a separation after Father's Day. I worry about my children, especially the 1 year old since he need so much help.

I hope that the separation will show him that we need to keep our family together.

KathyBatesel, I have said just about all of the thing that you mentioned. I told him I wanted to go to MC and change our relationship because obviously our relationship is not working the way it is. I told him I want to make our marriage my top priority, but I guess he doesn't believe me. I have taken responsibility for the things that I have done to contribute to our problems. I do hope that he is able to see a change in me during the separation. I told him that I never want to in this place again and that we have to start our relationship from the beginning to get to a better place. Maybe he will thinka about it while we are separated. All of our friends are married with families and he wants me to have full custody.

I guess only time will tell. Thank you everyone the advice. Any more advice will be appreciated.
