Also, now that H has a plan, he is insisting that we tell S18 and S20. I say S18 and S20 do not need to be involved right now. H wants to move out as soon as possible, but I think that it's better to let S18 and S20 have a nice summer and not interrupt it while they are at home. If this happens while they are at college, they don't need to watch Dad walk out the door. H does not want to wait until October to move out, but I think that's unfair to the boys.
H disagrees. H thinks it would be better to tell them in person so they can get support.
I remember when my own parents got D and it's very hard to watch your father leave, even if he's not going far. I would like them to be a little more removed from this when it happens.
What does the community think?
