I broke no contact yesterday because of our kids and regretted it. I however I'm so fed up by his mixed actions and contradictory words that I am moving away. I always believed that irregardless of what i feel, he should have an environment to be a father to our children. But currently, I no longer care if he'll be present or not. I've always insisted on him being present and not necessarily send money and say his a father. But now with the disrespect and insensitivity he has, i just feel a need to block him out of my life completely and let go. Can anyone who has had kids advice me on how you deal or dealt with them and the no contact bit?

It’s so hard when you’ve done everything you can to encourage a healthy co-parenting relationship but the other person doesn’t reciprocate. You’re doing what’s best for your mental health and your kids and that’s what matters most
difficult this must be for you. You’ve done your part to encourage his involvement but you can’t force someone to be present.
It sounds like you’ve tried so hard to create a healthy environment for your kids and it’s frustratin when the other parent doesn’t meet you halfway. Blocking him out for your own peace might be the best decision for now.
It’s incredibly hard to navigate co-parenting when there’s disrespect and insensitivity involved.
I hear you,it’s exhausting when their actions don’t match their words, especially with kids involved.
You’ve done your part trying to keep him present, but it shouldn’t come at the cost of your sanity. Sometimes the healthiest choice is distance, even if it’s complicated fr.
You’re doing what you need to protect your peace and that’s valid. It’s hard balancing kids with no contact, especially when the other parent is this way. and you’re not wrong for letting go, it’s okay to choose peace over chaos.
