He hasn't qualified for any explanations. You don't need to justify your position to him at all. You have absolutely done the right thing for your kids, for your puppy (yay! the puppy gets to stay & be loved!), and you've done the right thing for yourself. If your brain EVER starts questioning whether you did the right thing, or whether you were too harsh, that's your battered self-esteem talking. You deserve better and you've done the right thing. Don't stop believing that:)
