[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you need to be honest with your daughter op. This isn't fair. And you need to be honest with yourself too and recognize that despite how DDs home life may have been before, the decision to divorce is deeply difficult for most children no matter what age it happens. I think being really honest with yourself about how this has impacted her will help a lot in these conversations. Feeling like "but we gave you a happy life!" is going to be really dismissive of her very real feelings that the very happy life she knew and intact family she had will never be again. When she has her own children, she won't be able to bring them to grandma and grandpas. she will navigate two different homes with new partners etc. This is doable but it is not what people envision and it can be hard. Own your piece in this. You made a decision for your own happiness (which is ok!) but it impacted others greatly and I think you must own it. [/quote]

More to the point – kind of shitty that you got divorced and you need to tell her it was all your idea. [/quote]
