You've "Written it out" perfectly here--sanely, showing deep introspection, and all too clear expression. But I'm glad you didn't put it on FB, where people don't read long posts, or pick up only on a few words. You might have found an agent of the state on your doorstep!
But your boys are wonderful--of course, no outsider knows what's going on inside them, and none of us can predict the future--but at the moment, they are three very different and interesting personalities. You are not failing, because there are no grades for parenting. You just keep doing the job from day to day--and that's what counts.
Now why you can focus at work but not at home--that would require a greater expert than I to say--and it's a damn shame that you haven't been able to find that expert.
