I say this with deepest compassion, don't be fooled - your child has seen and probably heard more than you think. Six might be young to understand but they can still know something is not right.
For instance, my 10 year old does not quiet understand how alcohol is a disease but I caught her rummaging thru my husband's truck looking for bottles or empties and I realized she only learned that from watching ME!
