Auswop,
How long has it been since your husband has been divorced from his first wife? How long ago did the kids decide they didn't want to see their father? What reason did they give for this decision?
Getting out!

Don't make a big issue about it.
Give the kids all the love and support you can give them, but don't do anything they or their mother could call defaming the witnesses. Let the kids see how happy you are without the WTS in your lives, and that you live normal lives.
As teenagers, they have enough going on without their parents playing religious tug-o-war. In many ways, the strict morals the Society gives can benefit them, at least until they become adults. The JWs do give a support structure for avoiding drugs, pre-marital sex and drinking.
Let the kids grow up and when they are adults they can make up their own minds. Anyway, who knows if they decide to leave sometime in the future without your efforts?

Prisca,
From what I read, I got the impression that they couldn't even see the children. Therefore, it would not be possible to show them love under the circumstances. Since there has been no further clarification, there is not too much more advice that be given.
