I think that you are doing the right thing. Remember that in a situation like yours, like it or not, there are more than 2 parents involved. ALL of the parents have to be consistent for the kid or trouble can brew. I know I am making generalizations here, but kids tend to follow the path of least resistance. It sounds like his father is the weak link.
Keep fighting the good fight. Make sure the kids know you love them, be there for them, but stick to your guns.
