They are your little kayaks, so what I think doesn't matter. I just know that when we told our kids about me moving out, Coach made sure I did all the talking. He just didn't contribute at all while I told them. All he said to the kids when I finished was "Do you have any questions for me?" Our daughter did and he answered them matter of factly (logistical questions mostly). Other than that, he put the miserable chore in my lap altogether ~~~ right where it belonged. Grrrrrrrrrrr >-{ but that guy was dead on right to do it! It was part of the lesson he gave me in Reality 101. But you know your children best and what you say GOES in my book. Just some food for thought.
Greek, I have been wondering how I would handle this talk if I were forced to give it. I do not want the kids getting the impression that the D is something I want or even agreed to. I think the way Coach handled it is perfect. Thanks.
