Please help me know what to tell my children

[hoosiermama]

They need to know these things, and hear them from you--both if possible:

It's not their fault! They did nothing to cause this.

Mommy and Daddy still love you as much as always, and that will never change no matter what else changes.

We're going to be okay. They're going to be okay.

If you know what visitation will look like, how it will work out with the house--at least in the near future--they need to know what to expect about their daily lives. Depending on their ages, they don't need to know what's happening a month from now, a year from now--just the immediate future. Don't give them more information than they can handle, or more than they ask for.

Mommy and Daddy are both good people (yeah, I know--try to choke it out), we just don't love each other like husbands and wives do.
