Long story short: Wife decided to go out and have herself a midlife crisis after 20 years of marriage. Racked up a bunch of debt buying clothes and partying (while she told me she was a Bible study), ruined my credit rating, nearly fleeced me for $250K which is a story in itself, got a few boyfriends, etc.
During that time, I worked and she stayed at home with the kids. She was a lousy wife, but a good mom. We're doing joint custody of the remaining daughters who are at home ages 15 and 13. Our eldest is out of the house.
I dont get home until 6pm on the evenings I have them. And the ex has been their primary caregiver their whole lives. I find that our evenings together are spent primarily camped out watching NetFlix, them texting various friends and love interests, and then going to bed.
What are some inexpensive things that I can do (other than board games) to help relate better to my kids so they don't feel like their time with dad is a drag?
Quoting: TheBiss Slam doors and things around them, drink in front of them, use foul language, take away their possessions when they are with you, put their bedrooms in the basement and make the upstairs room an "office" which is really a porn room, use the other room to get a roommate, preferably female and younger so she brings hot friends over, only feed your daughters cheap fast food while you eat steak and lobster. Soon they will get jobs and become self-sufficient instead of becoming like their mother.
