23: “How do I tell my children that their mum and dad are splitting up?”

Here’s the (edited) story we discuss this week:   “How do I tell my children that their mum and dad are splitting up? My husband will be very difficult and immature about our split. He had an affair. He holds the purse-strings. Should I tell the kids about the affair? If I don’t they will hate me for wrecking the family.”   We mention Olly Lambert’s documentary ‘Mum and Dad are splitting up’ and this can be seen on: https://vimeo.com/72560382
