Wife instructing the kids that I am not a christian, inferring that I was not to be obeyed.

Before you can make things better, you have to stop making them worse... Have you considered that being critical, judgmental, or invalidating toward the other parent, no matter what she or he just did will only make matters worse? Someone has to be do something. This means finding the motivation to stop making things worse, learning how to interrupt your own negative responses, body language, facial expressions, voice tone, and learning how to inhibit your urges to do things that you later realize are contributing to the tensions.

Palm. So when I face-palm myself after engaging in an argument with an adult toddler, I get a refresher.

ROFL!

FF, did she have her own Bible study with the kids again this morning?

Don't know... .Thursdays is the day my 14 year old leads while I got to a men's group.

I'll talk to him at some point this evening.
