[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did not tell our kids when DH lost his job. It would create unnecessary stress for them. [/quote] Why would that stress them? They think you have no savings? They don't feel confident mom and dad will provide for them? You don't think you have a back up plan?[/quote] My husband’s dad lost his job when he (my DH) was 7. It was not something that either of in my in laws really remember. It was only for a few months and while there was worry, they had savings to tide them over. It stands out as a huge looming thing in my DH’s mind. He didn’t have the perspective to deal and it just frightened and overwhelmed him. I am sure some kids wouldn’t give it a second thought but many kids will. [/quote]
