[quote=Anonymous]I really think given your kids are 14 and 17 you should encourage them to self-advocate. Give them ideas of how to respond to her and how to talk to their dad. They need these skills in life. especially in a dad-new gf situation you can't be jumping in to save the day. That would be overstepping boundaries given the issue is a safe one. Teach your kids to respectfully speak up for themselves and to be able to say "that is something I'd rather not talk about". They need to be able to establish boundaries for themselves and to be able to be safe and confident those boundaries. [/quote]
