[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 91489, member: 1233"] Karen, Please talk with your counsellor about what you want to say to your daughter. My husband's parents divorced when he was in college. He came home for Christmas his second year and they told him before he even unpacked. His mom tried to get him alone to tell him but his dad insisted on being there. Mom wanted to turn him against Dad, dad wanted to be sure husband was OK. To this very day my husband does not know why the parents he thought were devoted to each other divorced. It has caused problems in our marriage. For the first 10 years he thought I would leave every time we got in a fight (often it was actually one of the 1st signs I was preggo! LOL!! I am a MEAN pregnant lady!) He truly kept waiting for me to just pack up and go with "I just want to be myself" as the only reason. I have always told him I waited to marry until I found the man I could be myself. That there is no need to go anywhere to be me. I am me everywhere I go. husband still HURTS over this. So does his sister. We actually live about an hour away from his mom and haven't seen her in 7 or 8 years. I have a box of Christmas presents for her, but we are not allowed to go to her house. She said she already had a grandchild and she didn't need or want any more. Witch. Talk to your daughter in a few weeks or months, when you are ready. Give her a concrete reason at some point in time. This will help her with relationships for a long time. You are doing a great job not badmouthing the ratmustard. I would have a hard time. Your posts show a lot of growth. Maybe printing them out to keep in a folder so when you are in doubt you can read them and see your progress would be a good idea? Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
