Sadly my marriage is over - I posted in divorce/separation that we are telling the kids today and somebody suggested asking here for advice.
It is my decision and my husband wants to tell the children that and that I am the one who is choosing to end our marriage.
I feel incredibly sad and I feel it is better to be united in telling? Although I don't want to be dishonest?
I would like to tell them that I have been unhappy for some time and we have worked on it and tried to make things better but that we have come to this decision now together.
What are other people's experience of telling the children with or without apportioning blame?
It is my choice and I accept that and repercussions but I would like to handle it the right and best way for them (aged 11 & 15) (boys).
Thank you for any input x
