now i would fight tooth and bloody nail to keep my kid, or even get joint legal and physical custory. no way will i let any man take my kid. lai lai.

but i don't think she is in the right frame of mind to be a mother to those boys right now, with her the structure they need might not be there. i know how my kid reacts when we deviate from our regular schedule.

you're right, kids are not like purses or dogs or shoes you can take back when you dont want them anymore, she should have at least agreed to a JOINT custody, unless she's willing to revisit the terms of the custody when she has herself together.

i wish all of them luck, but especially those two little boys.
I calmed down but still feel the same. I guess it is the fact that she did not ask for even joint custody. Even if she is stark raving mad and she is in no way mentally ready to raise the kids by herself she can enlist the help of family eg her mom and dad and between them and hired help it would have been okay. Why am I even taking panadol for her headache. It is the kids that I feel sorry for. It is not that their mother died it is just that in her opinion they complicate her life. How sad.
