Boy that's a toughy. They are 7 and 4. Parents are heroes at 7 and 4. I think it would be like finding out Santa is dead. As much as it hurts I'd hold on to it until they are older and are curious. The questions will come later.
A few weeks ago, you probably read, I drove by "the house" with the girls to get a swimsuit and a guy was there helping STBXW get the house on the market.
I have zero proof he's an OM but I suspect he is. The girls saw him and I said he's just a friend, yada, yada. Then I texted STBXW to tell her she'd have to explain.
She came up with some BS story about burning her hand and calling a friend for help (I saw her the next day and her hand was fine). But I didn't say anything as they hugged her and said, see, dad, he was just a friend.
Did I get a thank you? No. She thinks I told them he was a boyfriend and I got a letter from her L telling me I made some questionable decisions that weekend.
You can't win by telling them. They will lose because they are too young to lose their dad as a hero.
The truth will come out in the end.
