[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 237590, member: 805"] Janis, I'm with Marg on this one. You messed up, you made a mistake in venting to the kids about their dad. But you know, hearing from you that you shouldn't have said what you did, that those things are between you and your dad as adults, and that you are sorry but you were just feeling overwhelmed and overstressed and angry. I think it's good for our kids to hear us apologize when we make a mistake. While you can't take back the words that you said, you can apologize and tell the kids that their dad loves them (because you know, past the addiction running his life, that he loves his kids). At 12, 10 and 7, they are too young to hear the dad loves you but the drinking.......... Apologize and tell them you and dad love them. Don't tell biodrunk. Hugs, Sharon [/QUOTE]
