[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Psychologically, the mother's abandonment is often much more damaging to a child. Your daughter is coping with this story and also teaching her brother in order to protect herself/both of them from the truth. Have you considered having her speak to a therapist? Her awareness and adeptness here is a sign she is far older than her years, in terms of self-protection and the shame that she feels. [/quote] No therapist. Too often therapists try to discuss problems that little kids don’t even realize they have, but then they start thinking about it. Just be there for your kids and only if/when they start struggling or asking questions or expressing feelings that are beyond your abilities, then possibly a therapist[/quote]
