[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you divorce, you tell them when they ask and in an age-appropriate way. T[b]hey have a right to information about why their family/life changed dramatically. [/b] If you stay together you do not tell them in the same way you don’t tell them about every disagreement you have about your mother- in-law. [/quote] No, they do not have the right to that information at all. Whether cheating, financial abuse, emotional abuse, sexlessness...kids do not need dirty details. [/quote] If they ask, they do. Part of rebuilding the trust and security for kids whose lives have been upended is that you don’t lie to them. You can tell them about infidelity in a neutral way, but you don’t lie to your kids if they ask. [/quote]
