[quote=Anonymous]You should "inform" them of your own opinion about adult relationships, but if they have witnessed abusive behavior and themselves have brought it up, read this for guidance. They will have their own relationship with their father - and you need to let them experience that in a positive way. You can help them become advocates for themselves and critical thinkers who can think for themselves -- but you do not get to trash the father, even if he was emotionally abusive to you. They need to experience their relationship for what it is, rather than have a fantasy relationship or adopt your conclusions, which are not their own (because their experience may be different). https://www.amazon.com/When-Dad-Hurts-Mom-Witnessing-ebook/dp/B002SR2PVK/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1540854070&sr=8-6&keywords=lundy+bancroft[/quote]
