SH, we have not told the kids, "officially." Give them credit, they know something is up. Its been almost two years since I lived at home and they can put two and two together. That's too much to ask for a 9 and 7 to do isn't it? Now I feel awful.
They do ask. The last time was my daughter, 7yo, came in the kitchen and asked when we were going to be a family again. W's answer was, "That's a difficult question to answer." This was 3 or 4 months ago.
It took all my energy not to say anything at that time. When they ask me, I tell them the same answer we did in the past, "Mom and Dad are working things out. You know there is nothing more than I want, and that is for us to be a family."
Some may say this puts my W to blame in their eyes. I do tell them I made mistakes too and I am working on being a better father and husband.
In my state there is a required parenting class for D. We have not gone yet. I guess that could be a positive.
Hope this helps. Or maybe it doesn't since we haven't done anything yet.
