should I have told?
| Thu, 02-22-2007 - 10:51pm |
I have been married for over 30 years and have adult children. When I kicked my husband out of the house, I told our children that he was cheating on me with someone who was younger than them. Now I feel guilty for destroying the image they had of their 'perfect' father. I, of course knew for a long time that he was not perfect but they did not. Did I do the right thing?

Well, what's done is done... and ya know, sooner or later they probably would've put two and two together and realized what was really going on, so..... I guess you just saved them the self realization.
Normally, I'd say that it's not a good idea to diss dad, but.... your children are adults, and adults have a different level of thinking than younger children... so... who knows.
I guess time will tell about how they really feel about it all.
