[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would develop an explanation that aligns with the true issue with his mom. But isn't lurid or rude.[/quote] I am not sure what a lurid or rude explanation would be. But a true explanation might be “She doesn’t like being your mommy.” “She didn’t fall in love with you when you were a baby because her brain was sick.” I can’t really come up with a way that isn’t hurtful. [/quote] His mom is sick. Mental illness is a sickness like anything else. [/quote] A child with a physically sick mom might also need help understanding why his mom isn’t available to spend time with him. They might also feel sadness as they come to terms with their mother being different from other moms.[/quote]
