How Do I Talk To My Children About Divorce?
I am a mother of two boys, four and five. My husband is a cocaine user for many years and keeps promising he will never use again. After 18 years, I am throwing in the towel. I have been with him since I’m eighteen, not the best choice. I am mostly concerned about are children who love him to death. What do I say? Has anyone been through this and can offer some advice?
