Wow....I have never ever said anything like this to them. I don't bad mouth him or speak ill of him to my children. This is something she has picked up on herself. It made me very sad.
That is sad. They are very perceptive.
My 8 year-old said to me once when I was angry and short fused "wow, mom why did you even have kids if you didnt want them" Huge wake up call for me. That was when I first found soberrecovery and Al-anon a year ago. I knew I was falling off the deep end trying to cope with it all.
