Tough Talk,
My husband and I divorced years ago when our children were teens. We went through intensive counselling, but he would not stop cheating on me. However, he is a good father and did his best with the kids and supported them through the years. They now have children and they are asking why grandma and grandpa don’t live together. I’m not sure what I should tell them as they are still young and I don’t want to leave them with negative impressions. How should I handle this TT? (Margaret, Minnesota)
Margie,
Unfortunately, you are going to have to tell the kids the truth and tell them that gramps is a degenerate scoundrel who couldn’t keep his love pump to himself. Make sure you are brutally honest with the kids and let them know all the stuff gramps did to destroy your marriage. These kids deserve the truth no matter how young they are.
