Letting Go

My daughter told me this week that she'd rather have The Man and I together, and fighting, than apart.
Her sister suggested The Boy could go live with Dad and The Girl could go live with me, which resulted in The Boy crying in the night that he didn't want to choose when The Girl wanted to come home and he was asked if he wanted to go home as well.
I keep finding drawings of me and The Man and The Girl between us, with lovehearts bluetacked on doors and walls and the fridge.
Now The Man has told the kids that he can't take them away from me, because I need them.

Oh my God!
How much damage are we doing to these kids.
If there is a God, which I doubt, I hope s/he forgives me because I don't think my children ever will.
