[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am divorced. [b]Adults don't need to justify decisions to children.[/b] Nor should they know what their parents marital problems are or were. We are not compatible and it was the wrong decision to get married is enough of a reason. We grew apart is valid, too, and true in many cases. I am not immature. My dad put is marital problems on me. It is wrong to do that to kids. A child is not your therapist. If you want to tell people, tell your friend or a therapist. Don't be immature. Kids don't need it. It is unnecessary and worse than the original offense. Adult business is adult business. Keep it that way.[/quote] They do when said decisions directly affect the children.[/quote] Nope. [/quote] This kind of attitude is why i haven't spoken to my parents in 10 years, they withheld information from me that i would have used to decide who i would to live with.[/quote] With whom your father or mother cheated with, how and when, has nothing to do with who you decide to live with. You were a child! I do not understand letting children know. Children do not need to know the reason for everything little thing. [/quote] DP. Are you always like this? This comment seems outright delusional. [/quote] No, a divorce is nobody else’s business. Don’t bleed in public.[/quote] NP. This is such a strange reply. Divorce affects kids and so it makes sense to tell them the truth in an age appropriate way. You don’t want them to find out from someone else or to blame themselves for the divorce. Why take that chance?[/quote] Children do not need details. It is not age appropriate. Whether there is cheating or not. Period. And do not air your dirty laundry in public. [/quote]
