You gotta spread the wealth around. Income inequality and opportunity inequality are the worst problems facing this country socially right now. They are at the root of most of our problems.

This won't provide much solace, but she has mental issues bro.
I've got a buddy who has taken YEARS of verbal abuse from his wife, and one day had enough and moved out. They tried counseling, and long story short, every bit of unhappiness in her own life, she blames him for. She used to not be like that at all.
Sometimes people go nuts and refuse to get help. If you've made a good faith effort in trying to aid her in getting help, and she still won't, then you are better off without her.

If you got served out of Collin County, there is an appendix to the divorce papers called Standing Orders for Collin County or something like that. Read those items and make sure you don't break any of the rules or she can come down on you. Conversely, you can use them against her.
First things first, the state of residence and the one who has jurisdiction on this case is the state of Iowa. That will be your first issue your lawyer will have to argue in court. Given the time of residence, etc, you will win. Get that case moved out of Texas first of all. Secondly, lucky for you Iowa has become very liberal with custody. The court will start at the point of 50/50 shared care and move from there based on factors. It is clear to me your soon to be ex took off to Texas to try to establish residency there and to get the upper hand in the custody battle. She has an awakening coming. The advice to stay professional and treat this as a business transactiona and not get emotional and vindictive is sound. Find a good attorney, listen to their advice, and work with them on your case. Good luck to you.

If them living together will be detrimental to the kids in the long term, then absolutely he is better off without her.
You can't fix crazy, and at some point you are teaching your own children how to be mentally unhealthy

As others have said, if you don't look at her as your biggest enemy at this point, you are a fool. She will get everything she can from you without any regard to your well being. You will find that hard to believe because all of the time and love you have invested in each other, but it's the truth. You have to become as evil as she will be or she will walk all over your arse.
Horrendous advice

When it gets to the point of no return, it must be considered a purely business situation. There must be nothing evil about this man. She should and likely will be evil... he should be professional. Any other tactic is asking for trouble. Emotion, and all actions that typically occur as a result of them, should be left completely out of it.
Excellent advice

This advice might have already been offered, but get a detective on her.
If she thinks you are bullying her, there is a good chance there is somone out there who isn't bullying her...
find out what's going on...

Domestic abuse claims come with an automatic 1 year criminal restraining order against you and the children.
That's right bud. Just let that sink in for a minute.
A year before you get to plea your case,and by then your children will be accustomed to living without you in their lives.
Thanks Mr. Sunshine.

Man this hurts more than anything I have ever felt. I can't believe this is where we are. Says she is afraid of me and I bully her. Never, ever raised a hand to her or even came close to doing so.
Really strange that she'd straight up divorce you - did you guys at least try counseling? How can she go straight to divorce with all that baggage (kids, etc).

Because our societal structure and legal system incentivize such behavior by minimizing adverse effects and maximizing beneficial effects of doing so?

You call it bitter, I call it experience. I am pretty sure there are plenty of decent guys in this thread that have been crapped on out of the blue. We're just calling this as we see it because we've been through it and recognize instantly what is going on.

Advice to the OP... Hire a detective and good attorney... Money well spent on the front end will lessen the amount you'll get mandated to provide on the backside

Could be wrong, but many people in this thread who think the guy should try and stick it out seem to be newly married. They're either still in the honeymoon phase, or they refuse to believe that their princess could ever leave them. Which makes sense--it's tough to believe that your wife could straight up just peace out one day (even though you believe everything is going well). But that shite seems to happen quite often.
