Part of me wants her to tell them, because she is the one leaving. But I want the kids(D5 S4) to be hit as gently as possible with this. I dont care if I have to do all the talking. Does anyone have any experience with doing this? Do you tell them it is temporary?
As young as they are, I think to just say that Mommy & Daddy will be living in two different places-would be enough. Kids have to take things a little bit at a time in order to digest it all. Let them ask questions if they want. The main thing is let them know they will continue to be with their parents.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
