[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't tell the kids. This one is a no-brainer and you vindictive people willing to burn down the whole house sound absolutely unhinged. [/quote] The house is already burned down, and the kids know that. Older kids are not stupid and aren’t going to believe the platitudes about growing apart etc. Keeping a secret from them isn’t better for their mental health or for rebuilding trust in their parents— and divorce shakes trust in both parents. If you asked a child psychologist what is best you will usually be told not to keep it a secret. If you ask an adulterous spouse you will usually be told to keep it a secret. Only one of those individuals prioritizes the psychological well being of a child over other considerations. [/quote]
