I don't know what the situation is with many men and birth-family enmeshment is. My husband feels that he had the ideal childhood because his parents always told him he did. He has never has been willing to "leave home" and create his own, adult family unit. I mean, he loves our now-adult children, but he definitely never committed to me and the kids in a mature way. It was always his family first. I finally gave up and accepted that it is what it is.
