[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote][b]Your kids are adults, they are not helpless young children whose day to day life will be significantly impacted.[/b] It’s not your responsibility to help mend their relationship with their father, but it is in their best interest, and therefore yours, if they do not become enmeshed in your emotional pain and your relationship issues with him.

Also, why are you still staying with him?

This is such an insensitive, stupid reply.  OP already said it IS impacting her kids, so who are you to suggest it won't impact them?  And going forward, having to rework your view of your parent(s), potentially deal with stepparents/stepsiblings and split holidays will definitely impact OP's kids.  You need to retire from giving worthless advice and making uneducated responses.[/quote]

Triggered much?

Yes, her children are adults. They have the physical and mental capacity to cope with and process this in a way a young child simply can’t. OP can make this a lot easier or a lot harder on her kids. [/quote]

Unfortunately older children also have the capacity to understand how disgusting thier father is and that he threw their family under the bus for p*$$y.  Younger kids can often be spared the full understanding of exactly how sordid the situation is.

No matter how old you are, it is life changing, and identity-changing, to be faced with the fact that one of your parents is a piece of sh*t.[/quote]

Thankfully my kids truly never found out.  I’m not sure I could have reconciled if they knew. And, no, they didn’t sense it or any of that crap people like to sputter about. [/quote]
