Death or Dishonor
Im struggling with what I will tell my LO about her father. I have a lot of time before I even have to have the discussion (she's only four months) but wondering what any of you who grew up without dads might have better took hearing about your father who wasn't there.
The options are; he's dead, he's a deadbeat, or ______ (fill in the blank). What would you have rather your mother told you about why your dad wasn't present in your life?
* and yes I know things can change but people rarely change...he has already traumatized his eldest (9yearsold) he hasn't see in two years just text and phone calls and she often ask him why he doesn't see her or ask if certain events are why he's not around (like is your exhibit the reason why you can't see me dad😕)
*loving the advice but it's easy to say tell the truth but I'm looking for more justification than you should always tell the truth. There are some truths a child can't handle.
