[quote=Anonymous][quote]Let's say a spouse strays. The other spouse finds out. They agree to save the marriage. One morning, a 4-year-old finds the mother crying in the kitchen and asks what wrong. What does the mother say? Your daddy had an affair and I am heartbroken? NO! She lies![/quote] I generally don't lie to my kid, although it is not necessary to go into every detail of what the problem is - it is fine to be general, but truthful. I would say that mommy and daddy aren't getting along too well right now, and I'm sad, but we both love you very much. If my ex was mentally ill, I would say he was not feeling well and could not see DC as often as he would otherwise like to because of it. [/quote]
