What My Kids Need to See
How to talk to kids about marriage problems rarely gets addressed honestly. Most advice either assumes kids don’t notice anything, or tells them far more than they should ever have to carry. Neither actually protects them through a hard season.
What My Kids Need to See is a guide on how to talk to kids about marriage problems for parents weighing their marriage’s future — written without favoring staying together or separating.
Five chapters, each built around real families, cover what children actually notice, the line between honesty and burden, what different ages truly need to hear, and why the way you handle this matters as much as what you decide.
What It Helps With:
- Knowing what your kids have probably already picked up on
- Being honest with them without handing them weight that isn’t theirs
- Finding the right words for each child’s age
- Getting on the same page as parents before you say anything
- Carrying your kids through this well, whatever you decide
This guide is for any parent weighing their marriage’s future who wants to do right by their kids, whatever gets decided. A few things stay true either way: it’s not their fault, and how you carry them through it matters more than most people tell you.
