Gotta love the minions who simultanously critice Ioan for exposing his kids pain ans shame him for waiting so long. The latter was done to prevent the former, you clowns.
It's smart asking for joint custody even if you want full. Judges tend to side eye you if you go for full custody. another strategic error from herA lot of people in the Fail asking why IG does not go for full custody.
IG regularly needs to work away. Even as the primary care giver he would realistically have to share custody. To me his request seems reasonable. Asking for 100% when you cannot necessarily provide it would be counterintuitive.
As for BW not wanting the kids full-time. I was slightly younger than her when I was with a man with a 9 year old.
I did not want to be mum or have the kid who was apparently happy with his mother. I thought I was the least maternal woman on earth.
After a weekend with us, I caught my partner’s son crying. In retrospect he wanted to be caught. He said he didn’t know if he wanted to go home or stay.
Without thinking I told him both his father and mother loved him and wanted him and he was very much wanted by both.
Having said it I had to live by it. His mother was struggling and very much encouraged him to come to us.
I didn’t want kids and wondered what the fuck I had done. The reality was that it was better having him with us rather than his father worrying about him from a distance.
He had a good relationship with his mum and a very different but great relationship with me.
Thinking that involvement with the children will force a relationship apart is a myth. I actually stayed with his dad longer than I should have because I felt I had a commitment to the little one as well.
Seeing BW’s relationships with kids on Instagram and her love for her dog I suspect she would enjoy taking on some responsibility for the girls rather than resent it.
Apologies for the long post!
