The Podcast hit on this … if we bash the MLCr our children do the math .. if the LBS is good and the MLCr is all bad that makes them 50% bad and 50% good …. Not a good thing for the kids right? Food for thought I felt the need to share.
So wise. I have always been careful not to badmouth my ex, when possible I try to paint his behavior in the best light or at least write it off to his multiple concussions.
Yesterday my adult children were over and we were going to a movie together, getting in the car there was a discussion about leg length (as in not needing to move the seat forward to make legroom for the person behind). I commented on how they get it from me (long torsos and short legs) and my youngest (who is very depressed and currently estranged from his dad) commented that he wished he got ALL his genes from me .
So I can see how, even as adults, when they see their father's behavior in a negative light, they also can see themselves as part of that negativity, because of their genetic link.
