[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 337251, member: 1991"] I second that book. Welcome to the site. Do try and get your hands on that book as soon as you can - go to your library if you need to. In the meantime, on Early Childhood forum there is some discussion on how to adapt this book to younger children, it could give you some ideas on how it works. Your girls need stability in their lives. Kids are adaptable and with support it is amazing what they can take in their stride. But there are probably things you can do to help give them as much stability as possible. All you can do is the best you can. Don't beat yourself up for stuff you can't help. One point - did you use the girls' real names? They are lovely names but I hope they are pseudonyms. Especially with unusual names such as these,e it is too easy for someone to Google their names and track you to this site. On this site you need to feel free to be honest and sometimes vent, and if there's a chance that what you write about them could be used against you, or could aggravate a person you're trying to get some help with. Your ex, for example - if one day you wrote something about a problem with him and he read it, he could try to use it against you. That's why we tend to use various codes, acronyms etc, to give us the freedom to be open and honest. Anyway, welcome and I hope you find us the sanctuary and support that so many of us have.
