The kids and I are going out of town to see my family on Thanksgiving. The W will not go. I told the kids that W was not going and I tried to give an explanation. As I tried to think of what to tell them my S8 said that he knows why and it is "because mom doesn't like you as much as when you got married". I didn't know what to say. I just explained to them that their mother is a great person and that I love her very much. At that point the my S10 started crying and saying that he did not want to talk any more.
It is so hard to try to explain things to the kids. I don't know how much they know or how much I should tell them. They seem to know more than I thought they did. I have to give some sort of explanation. Right?
