You have a very astute and amazing little girl, bravo.

My D has tough nights where she asks a lot of questions. "do you want a divorce, Mama?" or "Why can't you guys work this out? I mean, it's important. It's important to me!"

We talk a lot about it and I talk about her feelings rather than place blame. She asks if I'm sad about it and I'm honest. She's a pretty bright girl and I think has put the picture together. She's not loving the situation as it is but she has adapted as well as can be expected.

I don't think my H deals with half of the conversations about it all as I do. He just speaks with a happy voice and reminds her that he loves her and that mommy loves her and that all should be right with the word. She calls him on it. LOL

She actually says, "I know you love me dad, that's not the point." Cracks me up.

H has actually said he has talked to "lots" of people who say they aren't that broken up about their parents' divorce and are perfectly "fine". I tell him he's talking to the wrong people. He just shrugs.

Just goes to show you that you can find evidence to support your cause no matter what your cause is.

Can't change the situation for her though as much as I truly want to.

I'm just sorry we have to see their pain on their faces.
