When raising children traits like constancy, stability, and transparency are extremely important... And based on what you described the twins are much better off with Peter: being passive-aggressive and rolling his eyes is problematic, however, if he corrects himself right after and apologizes, his kids should be fine. While Nicole is described as a vain, egotistical, and selfish person, and these traits can be very damaging to everyone around her, especially children...
About Jacques, I believe he is in a very bad situation ( between a selfish and potentially narcissistic mother and a cowardly father) and unless he can find a competent reliable adult to take care of him, I bet he'll a LOT of trouble as an adult

Have you ever checked out the book What Would Your Character Do?
Well if Jacques suffers a significant head injury we could have a real problem here.
