[quote=Anonymous]Selling your child that their parent is sick when they are is perfectly fine. how you talk abot it is important. There are books and many resources on talking to kids about parent mental illness. there was a thread on this maybe a year or so ago? A pretty long one, there were lots of great suggestions in it around how to talk to the kids - maybe someone with better search skills than me could find it! (It wasn't about divorce / custody - just about explaining mental illness to a child) If you had cancer and had to be hospitalized for awhile would you want your child thinking you were just away and too busy to see them?[/quote]
