[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After years of psychological and emotional abuse and neglect, I left my spouse in April. We have children together, 12 and 8. Up until now, I have been telling them that STBX and I have decided we can’t live together/couldn’t get along, but I am wondering if I should be more forthcoming with the details. I don’t want to lie to them, and I feel like STBX is the one who poisoned the family, and the kids deserve to know the other parent isn’t as fantastic as they believe.[/quote] Yes, by all means, be selfish, try to win the divorce and feel better about yourself while putting your children in the middle of your issues. Please, by all means let them know all the personality flaws in their genes so they can feel worse. Leave the kids out of your BS and just love them. Raise them with all the love you wish your marriage had. Do that and the rest will take care of itself.[/quote]
