My kids are old enough to ask questions and understand whats going on, I think my daughter spends more time trying to figure out what my wife is doing than I used too. My daughter has told her, according to wife, that she's very disappointed with my wife. I don't try to talk about whats going on, but if they ask questions I try to be honest with them (recommended from my IC).
Is that wrong? I don't paint a victims picture of myself, just that mom needs some time to figure things out. I tell them that we wouldn't be here if I didn't used to work so much in the first place. We just never made the time for ourselves, but it has nothing to do with you (meaning my kids). I don't know how else to talk to them about it. Any different recommendations?
I was gonna ask my IC about more guidelines regarding it today, but she called last minute to say she had to cancel due to a "crisis" situation, and needed to run someone to hospital. She'd call me tomorrow and make it up to me. I still need to help my kids work together, they have some anger and abandonment issues themselves regarding the last 5 months, and I was gonna bring them with me today to the IC. They seems angry at the world sometimes, which is understandable, but not healthy or helpful in any way.
