[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really depends, OP. Personally, I was not told about the affair and learned of it myself several years after the divorce. I betrayed, manipulated, and disillusioned because I certainly would not have had a friendly relationship with my mom's boyfriend had I known how badly they chose to treat my father. But there are definitely plenty of people who would rather not know. So as for your kids, I don't think anyone can give you a real answer.[/quote] But I bet you only felt that way because you were old enough to understand how they treated your father. When you were younger, that would have been over your head.[/quote] Well yeah. But the OP hasn't said how old her kids are. Like I said, there isn't a clear answer for every kid. I'm just saying, it might be less traumatic in the long run if they hear the truth from a parent. [/quote] I don't think it's ever less traumatic.[/quote]
