Began another round of mediation yesterday

It frustrates me to no end that the court system keeps telling me I need to believe my ex will change his abusive ways. When he continues the same patterns over and over and over again. I cringe inside when I hear forget the past and expect different in the future. I have been there done that only to be dragged back in by my ex. Now I would rather protect myself and teach my DD tools to survive and thrive despite his abuse.

A plus there was a lot of education about how words can have negative effects on children. Supposedly education for both of us but its preaching to the choir with me. I hope and pray some of it stuck with my ex. But given I have heard it delivered to him before I am hesitant to believe his professions of change.

yuck! not fun. good for you for keeping your head clear, despite the poor messages from the court system and your ex's bs about changing.
